ok my car runs fine loads of power smooth and generaly spot on but .........
on ocasion if i blip the throtle with the clutch in when slowing down it will give one almighty pop like a miss fire pop and feel down on power for a short period straight after. Any body got any ideas what it could be i checked the basics and obvious all i can think of now is that its one of the main sensors but dont know which one to look into first

its a late spec xe on diss pack motronic 2.8

has any body got a list of values for each sensor and how to test them?
