Subject:Re: Backfire thru intake ?
Date:Wed, 26 Jul 1995 09:20:46 -0500 (CDT)

As Ralph points out, a backfire can damage the intake box. One way to
protect that expensive piece of equipment is to NOT use clamps on the
various large vacuum hoses that go to the decel valve. A backfire will
blow off the hoses instead.
