When I first got it, it backfired when shifting. Determined that was due to a bad "gulp valve". So took of the belt, disconnected and plugged the hoses and all was fine. This car was very original and so later on I got a new gulp valve. Hooked everything back up and it was good for a few months. Started to backfire again and I gave up. Once again I disconnected the air pump system but it's still on the car.
