Hey guys on start up only occasionally I start my car everything is good and on the initial acceleration it does absolutely nothing then engine light comes on but after that it runs perfectly fine

And I checked all the possibilities being sensors and all that

Just pickles me as I haven't stumbled across it before

I have replaced at the vacuum lines and because it only happens occasionally it wouldn't be that so I might replace the fuel filter and see how that goes

do you have a boost gauge fitted?
Is your IC covered in oily dirty crud
