Default Re: Backfiring

Speaking from my own experience, my car had some fuel flow problems and would sometime starve for fuel which would cause it to backfire due to intermittent fuel flow while driving above 30 mph. Once I cleared the blockage and got the fuel flowing good again the backfire went away and the car ran normally. Backfiring can also be due to a failing condenser, broken wire under the point plate, etc. If your timing gear is new, I'd begin to check the items mentioned above along with checking your timing to be sure nothing has changed there
