Another thing to check if your car starts hard and backfires is maybe your vacuum. If you have a large leak somewhere, open vacuum ports on carb, bad intake gasket. Get it running and partially close the carbs choke with your hand, If it starts to rev higher you most likely have a vacuum leak somewhere. You can use a can of carb cleaner to spray around, when you hit a leak it will temporarily seal it making the car run different. Dont chop off your fingers!


GR-RRR!

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
