<p>wtf? Is it backfiring through the carbs or out the exhaust? Now
it sounds like the ignition is dying, the cylinders are loading up
with fuel, then the ignition lights off again and causes the
backfiring.</p>
<p>You need to go through the distributor wiring for a loose wire or
a bad rotor or a bad connection/fuse on the white wire circuit..
also look at the wires at the ignition switch (more white wires
(which also run the fuel pump, BTW)<br>

<div>car looses all power, bucks, backfires, catches and drive
ok for a bit, then big backfires and bucking, then it dies.
almost like a loss of power. it could be an intermittent power
loss. Distributor cap looks like . explosions. NOS cap, rotor,
points and condenser . Distributor was removed cleaned and re
greased.<br>

HD8s you can get leaking at the slow idle screw, which will
cause you to lose idle when the car gets hot. Try putting a
couple drops of oil around the threads of the slow idle
screw and see if that stops the problem. If so, you have to
take the slow idle screw out and replace and oil the O ring.

<div>Also, the Teflon bushes can come out a bit if installed
incorrectly, something else to check.</div>
