Backfiring in exhaust?
Hi All
Trying to tune my basically standard 1600dp. It has new Kads with 009 dizzy. Trying to tune motor and all it does is run rough and backfires under
revs(with the odd flame) Synccarbs, tried mixture and it makes little difference(tried different jets). Changed points, condenser no change. Tried a
different coil same. Checked timing, ok. Adjusted valves, ok. Fuel pressure runs 1.5 psi. Plugs and leads are nearly new. Now I'm running out of
Ideas what to check next??? Anyone got any suggestions??

you are getting air into the inlet manafold with the engine running spray a bit of aero start or flyspray around eather side manafolds if it revs up
you will have found your air leaki am asuming that the new carbs came with manafolds

I had a similar problem which was due to an air leak into the exhaust courtesy of the inlet preheat tubes. By changing to twin carb's did you seal
up the inlet preheat tubes?
