Re: engine hesitation
If it's a d****l that's how it left the factory
No, seriously ... you don't look that daft, let's assume it's a petrol
Is the fuel filter new ?
Is the fuel new (old fuel goes off and doesn't run the same)
When was it serviced ?
Did you SORN it over the winter ?

Re: engine hesitation
Probably needs a service and a good run, these things HATE being parked up.
Good luck with it
