So far, no luck. Cruise at 45 to 50, nail the throttle and KAPOW through the carb every time every time. Crane Cams had a little note that too tight of an adjustment could cause a backfire through t

That is what I was calling the snout on my transmission. Mine was not broken off but it was well worn. Never had a problem after replacing it. Wonder what the cause was? James Barrett Tiger II 351C
