Backfire
Tonight while driving I came upon this older Cobra and the driver seemed to want to play a bit so I shift into third, punch it, then as I shift into 4th my car backfires. Never had that happen before and it didn't seem like a good thing. Now suddenly, either my mind is telling me the car has less power, or it really does. I open the hood when I get home and see if i can hear any exhaust leaks but I'm not sure that I hear any. The only sound I hear is a real faint ticking which sounds more like injectors than valves or an exhaust leak. Anyone had their car backfire yet? With my aftermarket exhaust it was definitely kinda loud.
