Reply #52 - 08/24/05 at 07:38:40 You'll notice this topic is considerably shorter as I deleted off-topic comments. I've been away or I would have nipped this in the bud sooner. See Forum Manners for details.

The correct term is "AFTERFIRE"

Backfire occurs through the carburator.

After fire occurs thru the exhaust.

* am I contributing now Susan!!!!!

Question then, Are you experiencing backfire? or afterfire? I would tend to think backfire would be a killer to the carb? Just my guess learning here

. Therefore causing major issues. Where as afterfire is not more than an irritation to our ears in most cases?

Reply #57 - 08/27/05 at 09:41:34 Well, you know, I think that I've heard this term before, however I think that I understand how our common interpretation came about. For example, when I fart, it is "back there" and if I then strike a match I have a "back there fire". Hope that helps.

Reply #59 - 08/27/05 at 15:12:29 I guess I get afterfire because of a lean condition. When I lean way over I get gas out the back, with a match it's afterfire .
