backfire while coasting
this just started happening today on my way to work....driving to work and while coasting to a stop i noticed my car (1990 gxl) starts to backfire consistently until i push the clutch in. This is the first time I've noticed this occuring, it only used to backfire if I reved above 6000ish. Any suggestions on what may be causing the problem?
