Ive got a 2001 saxo vts, when im driving it and ease my foot off the accelerator it feels like it is chugging, any one any ideas.Ive got a bmc induction kit, manifold and decat with both lamba sensors plugged in, however the engine management light is still on. Do you reckon this has anything to do with it?

yeah i when i changed the manifold over and decat i made sure they went in the same holes. When i was driving it today, i gave it a bit through the gears and it accelerates but then for a split second its as though the power dies and then continues again.It did it a few times tonight. How much am i talking for a map sensor? is a map sensor likely to show up on a diagnostic machine?

cheers tom
