Poppin\' \'n\' abackfirin\'

Can anyone tell me if I can simply replace the chip in the ECu to overcome this sometimes annoying habit this engine of mine has? It will run fine, then hiccup for no reason- like it misses a beat. a few weeks ago, it spluttered & died on me as i was entering a petrol Station (petrol light not on). Wouldnt start immediately, then let out an almighty bang. Ran perfect afterwards. It seems to run a little weak when cold too- like its gonna cut out at low revs approachin islands etc. I warm the engine up before going out, but it wont run properly until its turned it's wheels for a few miles.

The chip thats in was a Chris Clarke supplied jobbie, when they fitted their own 50mm cansto it. I suspect it could benefit from a remapped chip. trouble is, I don't want to take it in just yet to be set up, so I was wondering if its just a case of replacing the chip

Thnaks In advance for any tips/help
