The BB Chev in the race-car transporter is having problems with occasional back-fires through the mixer/air cleaner when you get off the throttle then back on it again.Any comments/suggestions welcomed.

The motor is running a regraphed HEI dissy.My next step would be to get a LPG guru who can check the mixer to make sure it is not running too lean.Thanks for your input Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/33616-need-a-lpg-tuner-in-the-campbelltown-area/#findComment-514217 Share on other sites More sharing options...
