car is fully warmed up..

Subject: DML: backfire in tb?

For quite some time my 99 R/T has done a peculiar thing. If I coast down
from highway speed like approaching a red light and the light turns green
before I come to a stop say from about 20-30 mph and I punch the throttle
hard it may backfire into the tb one time then takes off like normal. Has
anyone had that happen? It only does that occasionally and I cannot
demonstrate it to anyone because I never know when It is going to happen.
Jim in Waco. My truck has 41k miles on it. 180 thermostat, 3923 plugs,
high flow cat. I never get a check engine light.
