Iight other than this problem i finally have all the bugs in my car fixed. When im driving down the road doing like 30-50km/h, and kick it into 4th or 5th and give it gas(lugging it) it sumtimes backfires. Its not just when i do that, like when i hit cornes i leav it in 3rd, and hit the gas after i turn and it backfires up until 2000-3000 rpm...:( What would it be or is this a normal prob...

You have an exhaust leak somewhere. Something fell off the back of a truck and went under my lude and busted a whole in my headers and exhaust. Got it fixed but it backfires now because of a leak in my exhaust manifold.

r u sure cause i had my whole exhaust system off when i put my new oil pan in, and i checked it all over. Someone told me timing or distributer cap.

you might want to replace the dizzy cap and rotor. but more likely it just needs some timing adjustment. do you have access to a timing light gun?

no i dont do it regularily, i did it to check if it was doing anything wrong, cause if u gear down and give it gas it shouldnt backfire, right?
