Every now and then someone will post a description of what his tractor is doing, and will say "it backfires" and continue describing his problem. I suspect the term "backfire" is used for different things by different people. How can you help him if he doesn't know the names of things he is talking about??? Backfire might mean engine "popped back" through carburetor when starting, or maybe explosion in muffler?? Different causes! I am a long-time amateur fix-it person, I like to keep old stuff running. I read the forums for a sort of entertainment. BTW, folks on an antique Mopar site I follow also use casual words to describe technical problems.
