Delayed throttle response

[Stempy]

Anybody have any ideas about this little glitch? The problem seems to occur when hitting the throttle following braking, but only at low speed, for example when braking to make a turn at a junction, I brake to a suitable speed then when I press the accellerator pedal nothing happens for probably half a second then the power comes in with a bang.

Hi Stempy,
I'd look towards the switch on the brake pedal possibly having a delayed release (stiffening mechanism) causing confusion for the ECU.

Second option would be the throttle position sensor, check the resistance using an analogue OHM meter to see that the needle moves smoothly through the sensors range without 'spikes'.
