Kind of doubt it but is there any way a vac petcock would cause backfire?
The vac petcock can very easily cause backfiring... either from being too rich, or too lean...
By leaking either fuel, or air, down that vac line and screwing up the mix...

I've had similar problems a few days ago with sluggish throttle and I purchased my Raptor petcock and it arrives today. I plan on stopping by Auto Zone on the way home and I need to get some parts. What size vacuum port plug do I need for the carb? What fuel filter would you recommend? What size fuel hose do I need?
I would have brought the parts to work to match up at Auto Zone but I wasn't expecting the petcock until tomorrow.

I could always tell when I was getting near reserve because the lower fuel pressure made it backfire a lot more. Fill it up & most of the backfiring would be gone again.

I thought that was just in my head, but I seem to think it backfires more easily when the tank is on the last 1/4 or so. Glad I was not the only one.
