This might sound obvious but have you checked for leaks everywhere? You need unburnt fuel and a little fresh air to backfire.. maybe you knocked...
I missed what kind of tranny you had. I think it's best to consider the system as a whole rather than just the individual components. FWIW, I...
I bought an OD from Herm and after a few dozen assemblies/disassemblies had to get a shim pack (and put in the whole pack!) to put behind the...
