1979 245 with Kjet.

the car will start when starting fluid is sprayed into the intake manifold, (thru the hole that the flame trap hose uses).

but when i try to give it gas, the car bacfires out the intake system. out to the air hose.

any thoughts on how/why this might be happening?

yes, firing order is correct.

and for the breif few seconds when it runs with the strarting fluid, seems to be running smooth.

thanks in advance for any help.
