And I am not going to argue with you. Your assertion that a fuel injected vehicle will not back fire is incorrect. I have a Lightning that will do high 10 second quarter mile passes and I have had back fires in certain conditions...usually tuning related and usually when letting off of the gas at the big end of a pass, but it does happen.bdickens wrote:I'm not going to argue with you; I turn wrenches for a living. With modern electronic fuel injection it just doesn't happen. You might get one that is so messed up that it will backfire when you try to start it, but you won't get it to run.
Regardless, there are many older, carburetor vehicles around being driven by teens that love to play. The "gun fire" you hear at night may be gun fire, but it could also be a vehicle back firing or even fireworks.
