Re: [BaadAssGremlins] amc 258-6 backfiring thru carb

I had a 1958 Ford 352 cubic inch police interceptor several years back and a 1979 250 cubic inch inline six that spit thru carb when accelorating and both had lobe rounded off of camshaft. I bet that is what the problem is. Both started with no warning before it started spitting.

Yesterday my wife's 258-6 Eagle started backfiring thru carb. Popping noise. Still runs,
but rough, and pop noise. I am sort of stumped on this and have read a variety of answers
all over place but carb jets appear to be clean, distributor cap fine although will
replace it, have not checked vacuum advance nor timing yet. Any advise appreciated, just
reply here & thanks in advance to all who might reply.
