please help 323F kangeroos
 
Hi all please help if you can I am at the end of my tether, I have an issue with my 323F 2.0L every time I try to pull away in first or second it kangaroo's hard like it is starving fuel or losing power, I had the AA tow me in the only thing on the diagnostics was the Oxygen sensors which I have now changed I have replaced the plugs while I was at it, at idle it is as sweet as a nut and rev's under no load fine but as soon as I put it under load in 1st or 2nd it does it and I mean hard like it wants to throw you out the windscreen lol, but not in reverse..... I'm lost it seems electrical but not sure any ideas gents??

The big rubber boot from the aircleaner (AFM) to the throttlebody is cracked. The crack gets bigger when the engine moves under load. Duct tape it until you get a new boot.
