Hello,
The other day I took my '51 3100 (stock 216) out for a short drive. After about 20 minutes or so, while driving flat out (you know, 40-45 mph), it started backfiring through the carburetor. It seems like it's just one cylinder. At idle there's a pop pop pop from the carb that, of course, was stronger and faster at speed. I haven't started troubleshooting yet. Any suggestions about where I should begin, or the likely conclusion?
This is my first post to ask for help, but not the first time I've taken advantage of the collected knowledge of the group. Thanks very much!
Tim
