Carby back firing

missmaverick1, Sep 21, 10:22am
got a Lada Niva and it has started back firing out the carby what would be causing that! i have recently been working on it might i have reconnected a hose or something round the wrong way! it doesn't appear so but i might have missed something.

Go through what you did with a fine toothed comb to make sure it's as it should be.

When does it backfire through the carb! Have you verified the cam timing!

Back firing out the carb is a timing issue or very lean burn issue

fouled plugs , common cause of this problem.

incorrect, it wouldn't cause that, only would cause poor running or missing, and higher fuel consumption, but timing and a very lean mixture will cause that

have you by chance placed the plug leads on the wrong way! The firing order is 1324 if you swap plugs 2 and 3 so that it was 1234 it would cause backfiring through the carb

Thank you all. I will try those options.

i beg to differ Ginga , personal experience tells me you are wrong. I had fouled up plugs which caused backfiring thru carb when engine came under load. Cleaned plugs and bingo! no more backfiring.Do your homework before saying im wrong.

As above.go through EVERYTHING you have done and double check. Too hard to assess over the net. I have have dozens of customers come in with a problem only to find out 2 hours later they had done something quite unrelated to their description!

Do my homework! No thanks, my experience also speaks for Itself.

missmaverick1, Sep 23, 10:24am
it was the leads around the wrong way.

bellky, Sep 23, 10:28am
in other words - timing.
