Default Re: Backfiring Model A

When I was a teenager driving my first Model A, we always thought it was "cute" to start down a hill and retard the spark. If that didn't make it backfire, then one could always turn off the ignition for a second or two and thn back on. I think once I even blew up a muffler that way. ******Kids!*****
