So for along time now if im like all throttle in 1st gear when it shifts it would "backfire". Like I said only when Its going from 1st to 2nd in wot. It has done it for awhile but it was really quite and not annoying. Now its really loud. Any ideas, btw i mean backfire as in I can hear it through my intake.

 

un burned fuel left in the exhaust... my turbo sxt would belch out flames rather than the pop. before the turbo it would do the same as yours.

whoa wait... through your intake?

 

yeah through the intake is not a good sign

 

INTAKE?!?!

I know a few SRT owners and they complain about backfiring because the ECU dumps fuel into the engine after you let off the gas. But through an intake???

 

Well I dont see any flames. I just hear it pop, it does sound like its coming from intake though???

 

On our cars when it backfires through the intake it usually means you have a fouled sparkplug(s)...

 

Okk, but wouldnt I get a cel? This week is maintance week for my car so should I add new plugs to the list you think?

 

not all the time you will see the CEL

 

Well if it stop raining Im going to take all the intake pipes out, clean the filter and look inside my mani. Just for the hell of it.
