Little fire in my airbox
Discussion
Hello viewers,
After running a little rough for 2 days, idle unexpectedly dropped from 800 to 500 and stalled between gear changes, one back fire through the air box and hey presto!
I took the air box off to give it a tune and was confronted with this....could have been catastrophic!
Gave her a tune and now running better than ever. I still
this car and engine. FYI

Crikey, you were lucky! Thank god eh. Any idea what caused it? Just curious but when was the last time your clearances were checked and, if necessary, adjusted?
Cheers

Andy, when the TB's fall out of tune they get a little back fire action happening just within the TB it's self. And also the spray oil you apply to the filter is highly flammable as well. The clearances are were fine, she just wanted a tune.Cheers
