Default Re: backfire

You didn't give enough information about the cart. What year is it? 2pg, 3pg, or 4 stroke?

The common backfire cause on a 2 stroke is the spring missing from the end of the throttle cable. Its purpose is to allow the microswitch to make contact before the butterfly opens.

The pictures below are for the 2pg 2 stroke engine.
