i also had this in a 1900 i did the hlllclimb in but i sold it shortly after so never got to the bottom of it, i was however told it was a fuel surge thou, ie not enough in the tank

 

maybe a dodgy fuel pump!!

Has got a full tank of fuel,

Could it be the throttle body?

Now fixed the problem, there was a hole in the air filter to AFM pipe.

 

Many Thanks

Typical problem. More air which is not calculated then engine starves for fuel and flat spots.

Do you mean the AFM to throttle body pipe? A split in the air filter pipe would just let unfiltered air in but the car should run fine.

It would have to be after the AFM to be unmetered.
