did you test the engine before you took it out of the picasso? check cam lobes aswell mate?
try diconnecting the battary for 20mins might clear the ecu but not sure if it work with the saxo

check the timing. if the timing is 1 tooth out it will not pull the same.
also have u had it hooked up to a code reader as it will do this if the map sensor or o2 sensor is playing up.
could also be the coil pack.


first things id do is check the timing.
and then get it hooked up to a code reader.
