Re: [T3] what have I done?


TimmyK=> one huge backfire, and it quits.  Restarts no

Run your standard procedures -- valves, dwell, timing, check plugs -- and a
compression test as well. If all that checks out good, take a close look for
parts missing from the carb throats, like a power tube. True backfire can be
destructive.
