Is it a backfire in the exhaust as loud as a shotgun, or just a little popping sound which is usually made by the carb?


I had a little popping sound when full deceleration and when shifting. Was running too lean on the Gav, opened the gav up at lower speeds (shifting) and when slowing down from higher speeds about another 1/3 turn counterclockwise on the GAV.




I had a loud backfire when I got my truck back from a Model A shop when turning off the motor. The idle mixture adjust screw was set way too rich.
