   i have a 1.1 saxo which cuts out now and again when i put the clutch in to change gear (sometimes when im going at some speed), the idle also goes crazy sometimes and starts reving and dropping again, any ideas of what it could be? friend told me i should clean my K&N out? please help

   mine does it sometimes, can be very annoying, just floor it with the clutch down normally goes back to normal for me
