what do flames sound like?
i know what they look like, but what do they sound like? i may seem like a dumb question but it is somthing that have been on my mind a long time. i don't have many freinds so there is no one to tell me that i am shooting flames. I can hear the backfire is that also mean that is flame too?

I don't know man, i get backfire too but not often, usually when I try starting up for the third time which rarely happens. The other time it happened was when I was flooring it and let go of the gas right away since there was a cop, I got small backfire from that too. The previous owner told me that flames would should out of it once in a while, but I don't know how he could verify that?

Friend of mine would pop flames out all the time. Just sounds like a popping noise. Nothing too crazy loud. He didnt even know he was popping them out half the time. Wasnt anything crazy though, just a quick burst or orange. Not like some that I've seen that extend a good foot or so out there. My car makes a similiar popping noise if I get on it and let off instanty and now I'm curious as to wether mine is doing it too.

a flame doesnt have to sound like anything. the backfire is what you actualy hear. and when you "hear" something, there doesnt always have to have a "visual" flame outside of the exhaust.

it depends what kind of flame you get, sometimes its a pop between shifts (could be real loud, might not be though and you should be able to see some black smoke behind you), and sometimes it just sounds like a torch or flamethrower (when they last 30 secs on deceleration and burn your bumper hehe)

I won't let go
Have a friend rev near redline a few times and put your ear right up to the tailpipe. Sometime during that process, if you're tuned a hair on the rich side you may get a flame. Then you'll know how it looks and sounds.

Dont take this personally, but Flames sound something like this...
You swine. You vulgar little maggot. You worthless bag of filth. I'll bet
you couldn't pour **** out of a boot with instructions on the heel. You are
a canker. A sore that won't go away. I would rather kiss a lawyer than be
seen with you.
Try to edit your responses of unnecessary material before attempting to
impress us with your insight. The evidence that you are a nincompoop will
still be available to readers, but they will be able to access it more
rapidly.
You snail-skulled little rabbit. Would that a hawk pick you up, drive its
beak into your brain, and upon finding it rancid set you loose to fly
briefly before spattering the ocean rocks with the frothy pink shame of your
ignoble blood. May you choke on the queasy, convulsing nausea of your own
trite, foolish beliefs.
You are weary, stale, flat and unprofitable. You are grimy, squalid, nasty
and profane. You are foul and disgusting. You're a fool, an ignoramus. And
what meaning do you expect your delusionally self-important statements of
unknowing, inexperienced opinion to have with us? What fantasy do you hold
that you would believe that your tiny-fisted tantrums would have more weight
than that of a leprous desert rat, spinning rabidly in a circle, waiting for
the bite of the snake?
You are a waste of flesh. You have no rhythm. You are ridiculous and
obnoxious. You are the moral equivalent of a leech. You are a living
emptiness, a meaningless void. You are sour and senile. You are a disease,
you puerile one-handed slack-jawed drooling meatslapper.
You smarmy lagerlout git. You bloody woofter sod. Bugger off, pillock. You
grotty wanking oik artless base-court apple-john. You clouted boggish
foot-licking twit. You dankish clack-dish plonker. You gormless crook-pated
tosser. You churlish boil-brained clotpole ponce. You cockered bum-bailey
poofter. You craven dewberry pisshead cockup pratting naff. You gob-kissing
gleeking flap-mouthed coxcomb. You dread-bolted fobbing beef-witted
clapper-clawed flirt-gill.
You are a fiend and a coward, and you have bad breath. You are degenerate,
noxious and depraved. I feel debased just for knowing you exist. I despise
everything about you, and I wish you would go away.
I cannot believe how incredibly stupid you are. I mean rock-hard stupid.
Dehydrated-rock-hard stupid. Stupid so stupid that it goes way beyond the
stupid we know into a whole different dimension of stupid. You are
trans-stupid stupid. Meta-stupid. Some pure essence of a stupid so
uncontaminated by anything else as to be beyond the laws of physics that we
know. I'm sorry. I can't go on. This is an epiphany of stupid for me. After
this, you may not hear from me again for a while. I don't have enough
strength left to deride your ignorant questions and half baked comments
about unimportant trivia, or any of the rest of this drivel. Duh. I mean,
really, stringing together a bunch of insults among a load of babbling was
hardly effective... Maybe later in life, after you have learned to read,
write, spell, and count, you will have more success.
True, these are rudimentary skills that many of us "normal" people take for
granted that everyone has an easy time of mastering. But we sometimes forget
that there are "challenged" persons in this world who find these things more
difficult. If I had known, that this was your case then I would have never
read your post. It just wouldn't have been "right". Sort of like parking in
a handicap space. I wish you the best of luck in the emotional and social
struggles that seem to be placing such a demand on you.
Wow, that was fun, i'm feeling much better now.
I routinely get significant backfires when shifting, but i dont know if i get flames along with them...

Hooray For Boobies!!!
I'll have to cut and paste that into other threads. Perfect.
Watch at night you will see your mirrors light up. Sounds like a slight backfire. Then you will notice black carbon marks on your bumper. Runnin rich.
