Backfiring/popping on wot

[darzmat]

As i stated in my newbie post i test drove an 850t5 that i will be picking up next week.

Only problem on the test drive was when i gunned it in third it started to splutter and was backfiring out the exhaust.
I didnt look at the boost gauge as i didnt know the road to was looking where i was going lol. But im assuming it as dropping.

He said it had never done it before, the cars been sat since june and was extremely low on fuel. I dont know if this would be the cause.

Any ideas?

Cheers

could be anything, plugs, leads, maf, lambda, dizzy, rotor arm, timing lol

You again Lol. Fair enough, first thing will be a full service anyways, so hopefully it will be plugs/leads if the drive home doesnt clear it.

Thanks

I wish mine banged that loud.
Mine had a splutter & a backfire. Turned out to be the maf.
Try get a genuine Bosch one though dude, mine was cheap tat & was ruining the car.
