Backfire on shutoff. (Read 120 times)

mtstringer Ex Member	Backfire on shutoff. 06/01/06 at 13:19:03 Hi all I have a 1987 Savage with 29400 miles on her. Every time I shut her off she backfires. Some times it is a bang and others it is just a little puttt. Timing is checking good, any other ideas? Thanks Mt

Reply #1 - 06/01/06 at 16:23:12 should post in rubber-side down this is a how-to section. anyhow what do you have on your bike stock carb and exhaust? the bike runs real lean do a search on how to take care of that. in the mean time when you go to shut off your bike let it idle a minute or so then turn off with the key instead of the on/off switch.

Hi! I am so used to the loud bang on shut off, that the other day when I was riding my ATV, and I shut it off anticipating a bang, and it didn't backfire - I was surprised - until I realized I wasn't sitting on my bike(lol).

My bike is in the shop getting some new tires, and I've asked them to check the jetting etc. Figured I wasn't quite up to doing the carb mods myself yet. Grin

The putt's come when moter is 'cool', the bangs come after it's hot or thats the way mine was. When you have the tank off put a fresh plug in.
