nova problem

[John (9)]

Hi
nova 1.4i runs well but occasionally the engine management light comes on for a couple of seconds and the engine judders as if it could cut out ..but picks up and runs fine again. I only use the car for short journeys up to about 10 miles and this seems to hapen when the engine is warm. I'm a bit concerned it might cut out altogether sometime. now and then it is difficult to start when warm. any help advise would be great TIA

pull the codes using the paperclip trick, but i'm pretty sure you'll find it's the crank (cam) sensor normal culprit mike

thanks for that mike..what does pull the codes using the paperclip trick mean? I' m a bit of a DIY man with repairs. Does the crank (cam) sensor take much fitting?
