My 122 Volvo will backfire about 10 seconds after i shut it off. I know how it happens, fuel in the hot exhaust. The car is SU equiped. It has no vac advance. I am just trying to figure a couse of action to make it stop. My thinking is at this point either the mechanical advance is sticking a bit, or the oil in the carb dampers is to light. otherwise the car seems to be running ok. i have put about 220+ miles on it in the last week or so, and i might even upgrade it daily driver status
so any thought or ideas will be considered and welcome

thanx
