Backfire in intake
I fixed my hard start problem, but now the car still wont start but I have a new issue that not sure how to figure out.
If I press the gas pedal down and attempt to start it I hear like a deep thunderish roar coming from the engine, and after a few attempts it backfires out of the intake. The tube coming from the throttle body/airfilter housing that leads to the front of the engine beside the battery puts out a big thump of air.
I have never known nor seen this car backfire before, and the fact that it if backfiring in the intake (still stock) has me totally confused. Any ideas?
BTW - the plugs are black (too rich) and I smell alot of fuel.
I have checked many things which finally got it to crank over. (Different post Maxima in Trouble)
