[urq] 20vt ur-q Backfires - Thoughts?

[Martin pajak]

Now now... ;)

I do get some nice ones once in a while......
I've scared few pedestrians waiting at a bus stop once... ;)

If we had Catalytics this problem would probably not be there.

How did you like Belgian GP???
Sorry I missed it... my Taxi service was not available.. :(

Cheers
Martin

I get quite a bit of backfiring from the 3B engine in my
'84 ur-q. It has the stock rear muffler and 3" pipe from
the down pipe. Stock turbo (250,000 mile!) K24.

Sometimes between shifts and also on lift throttle I will get
back firing. Sounds good, but I am guessing you can have too much?

I don't have an O2 meter but I am guessing rich spikes, or
possibly oil though the turbo seals?

Martin's car also backfires, probably not as much as mine or he
just doesn't lift his foot off the throttle, which is true.

Cheers, Mike
