RE: backfiring 428 cj

Short in advance plate maybe? Try unhooking your vacuum advance and plugging the line. I have seen many Fords with worn distributors and when the advance starts coming around, it shorts out.

If unplugging the advance makes it go away. Check for a worn pigtail to the points, if not, you are in the market for a rebuild

Before I did anything I would put a timing light back on and go back to 10, a good starting point
This thread, so far...
