Problem or just crap fuel?
Im back on line again for anyone that remembers me... (www.silversaph.co.uk) with another problem 
Driving home last night around 70mph, dropped it down to 4th and floored it, got 3 or 4 big bangs/pops/backfires so lifted straight off, tried it again and got the same. After that had no other problems, was it due to the fact i had no option but to put in crap cheap tescos petrol rather than optimax that i usually use?
Help please!

i think you answered your own question...
Why you would floor the car knowing that the fuel in it isnt upto the job i dont know!
was it due to the fact i had no option but to put in crap cheap tescos petrol rather than optimax that i usually use?
