Default Backfire
I having trouble with my 1953 ford victoria v/8. I asserted opt 2-3 weeks ago and it was great. I just started it up today and it started immediately and idled smooth. When It reaches about 1/3rd throttle it starts popping out the exhaust. I am at a loss as to why. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you

Exhaust valve sticking, add some Marvel Mistery oil to fuel.
