shift....backfire
 

when i shift from 3rd to 4th and sometimes 2nd to 3rd i hear a slight backfire......what will cause this.....timing(miss fire),dis/cap?

what is your exaust system consisting of?

ye mine does the same thing.. can be because your running rich

mine does the same in every gear.... :-)

is there a way to get rid of it?

Why?...I love the sound of my car backfiring. and its not hurting anything. Leave it. Give's your car character:thumbup:

my car does some backfiring, when I let go of the gas at around 5000rpm, could that be something bad?

a long resonator can decrease the backfiring quite a bit

Mine causes the muffler tip to be burnt black. Some have said to see small flames when im WOT then shifing.

IMO if your car runs slightly rich it isn't THAT bad, preferably better than running lean.

SteveZ is right,Resonator's do help a lot. I have 2.5" exhuast and an 18" long resonator and I only hear the occasional "pop" at 4000RPM and over. If I didn't have that sucker Id be shooting mad flame's out the Back!!!!!
