Could incorrect valve clearances course backfiring at idle?
The car backfires quite alot at idle, I'm getting a new exhaust put on it on Monday and I don't want it to blow my new muffler apart.

So I think it was just dirty plugs,
No. 3 lead fell of and it start back firing then until I put it back on.
Now I just got to fix high idle and rpm taco :cry:
