2015 ezgo carb backfire???
What would cause the carb to back fire when you start it up when it's cold, it will eventually start and run fine, but at first it spits and sputters and backfires? Cleaned the carb several times and replaced all gaskets.

Re: 2015 ezgo carb backfire???
Back fire through the carb is the valve not completely closing before the plug fires. Back fire out the exhaust is raw fuel not getting burned and then getting ignited. I see you are in Detroit so I assume its cold there. You could try running a little bit hotter plug and see if that helps..

Pretty sure these motors have hydraulic lifters so if it is really cold, that lifter may misbehave

Trust me, it is highly unlikely to be valve adjustment.

Re: 2015 ezgo carb backfire???
I have always related a back fire with timing.
Please explain way a lean condition would create a back fire? If the intake valve was not opened at the wrong time? Always open to learn! |
