ATOMIC BACKFIRE
I went from the frying pan to the fire with this one.After replacing a carb that was causing problems, hard starting,
stalling, leaking, then a fire. I wound up with a new problem.
When I let off the gas at high speed I get one single large backfire.
The other prombles are gone and the truck runs good except for the backfire.
There is a condenser mounted to the coil but the wire got burned in the fire and I am not sure what the wire was connected to. Could this be the problem? Do you know where that wire goes? Thanks

the condensor attached to the coil is for radio interference. I believe it goes to the negative side of the coil, but you don't need it and it has nothing to do with your problem.
