Vacuum leak, too much or too little fuel, fuel sync incorrectly set (too
high or too low), cam installed incorrectly, distributor installed
incorrectly.

Subject: DML: what causes intake backfires?

Does anyone know what condition would cause intake backfires? would it
be a
condition of retatrded or advanced timing? or could it be lean fuel?
possibly a
vacuum leak? I am experiencing major hesitation off the line (engine
bogs
almost to a stall) and intake backfiring.

Any suggestions welcomed
