74284, pop pop pop
Posted by xtrickedeclipsex, Jul-23-04 03:46 PM
Was wondering what I could do about this problem

When going down a hill, at higher rpm -2500-3500(high vac), I hear POP, POP, POP, BANG! (Ooo reminds me of old school Batman lol)

I assume its raw fuel igniting in the exhaust as im decelerating. My question is how the hell do I fix that?

I no my Fuel Pressure is too high for my injectors (310 cc Accell’s) Im hitting 40 psi at idle. Could high FP be causing that loud popping?

Any ideas please

yes.

Turn down the fuel pressure.

Rule of thumb...

backfire out the exhaust is too rich
backfire out the intake is too lean

When you are compression braking, this is completely normal and expected. You don't need to adjust anything.

compression braking is when ur coasting, in gear but not on the throttle, and using the motor to slow you down. This pulls the cylinders and could/would cause what your discribing.

Brakes arent at play here

There might be a small hole in your exhaust.

turn your car off while slowing down. or put your stock muffler back on.

If you dont want to address the problem (if there is one, I dont know) just stick it in nuetral when coming to a stop. Thats what I do around town to avoid making my car shake to much from the mounts and my muffler. Just a band-aid solution though.

I backfire quite often now decelerating since I put the 440's in my car also.......seems somewhat normal.

When I was going through MAP sensor problems, my car backfired a lot when compression braking. A little is expected, but loud banging and flames coming out of the back was kind of unreasonable.

If the car is stock and this happens, I'd check the MAP sensor and possibly the oxygen sensor.
