Engine Hesitation.

["jchapelhow" <chapelhow@xxxx>]

All.

After having gathered together all of the bits ready to cure my 
slight overheating problem (new thermostat, self-bleed kit, hoses 
etc) I cam to start my DMC this morning. Although it started first 
time, pressing the accelerator did not increase the engine revs, 
instead it made it sound like it was going to stall, with a drop in 
revs? 

With my foot off the accelerator it immediately started idling 
normally again. I restarted it several time but with the same 
scenario. After ringing the garage to tell them I would be late I 
restarted it (for about the 6th time) and it began to run much 
better. There is still a definite hesitation between pressing the 
accelerator and getting a normal response.

Any suggestions? Hopefully it is something I can check/fix/replace in 
time to get to Shuttleworth?.
