back-fire when cold 200

posted by  someone claiming to be Rhys on  Tue Oct 11 14:29 CST 2005 [RELATED]

Here in Canada an '82 is a K-jet engine. A cold running backfire is an idication of a lean mixture, which could be a leak in the system downstream of the sensor plate, or more likely the warm-up regulator is failing.
If the engine idles well when hot, I would suspect the warm up regulator.
