7.3 missing and backfiring threw the air cleaner
Hey all, was wondering if I could get some light shead on a problem. My dad has a 96 powerstroke with 230K in it. He parked it becouse it had a miss. I whent out and started it. it took a little bit to fire. when It did it had a constant pop or back fire threw the air cleaner. when id give it some rpms the pop would speed up. It also has a ruff idle like a miss. Im thinking that it lost a valve but not sure. has anyone had this happen to them yet? there is no check engine light that comes on. I did some reading on the forum but could find anything like this. any help would be greatly apreciated.
