Backfire on gearchange
my A2 has begun backfiring on gear change and when going down hill with foot off the accelerator. Not huge bangs but quite audible. From my mechanicing days I seem to remember it can be caused by a leaking manifold , not sure which one though. In all other respects it runs well. I need some advice before I start pulling bits off. Thanks. Col.
Re: Backfire on gearchange
Combination of leaking exhaust manifold and running rich. Most likely place for that kind of leak is the joint between the manifold and the exhaust pipe.

Re: Backfire on gearchange
Since that last post I have tried Rapco, TJM, Red River, WilleysParts, Original Repros, Surplus City , Truck Parts , and Ebay with no luck. One isn't responding and one has no 151 parts in inventory any more, so do any of you know of a supplier of exhaust/ inlet manifold gaskets . I made the present ones myself but the exhaust only lasted one year. I need real ones. Thanks.

Re: Backfire on gearchange
Thanks for the replies . Howard, Kemperer only have the inlet gaskets. Horst , Reomie don't show any manifold gaskets. There is a company in Sydney that make them, no-one in Brisbane, it takes weeks but I may have to go that way. Thanks again. Col
