Hemieater, Like I said, was just curious, I have. Scared the crap out of me, thought I'd lost the whole motor. It just holds the exploded charge untill the intake valve opens and then it ignites everything in the intake, which kinda sounds like a really loud knock from the passenger compartment. As far as the problem at hand,IDK, maybe accelerator pump or vaccumn advance on the dist?

Is the 302 an HO motor? Was it TBI? If so it uses the 351 firing order.
