Hey John: You really have the list server in an uproar. In addition to the suggestions that I sent you directly before, I have another long shot. Could it be in the power steering system? Try removing or loosening the belt on the power steering pump and see if it still does it on the turns. Maybe the power steering pump is putting too much of a load on the engine and it lugs down enough to backfire. If not, see if you can locate which carb is the offending one and try tracing that a little further. This is like a great scavenger hunt from school days. Good Luck, John Mc Adams -----Original Message----- From: Owen & Jo Grigg [mailto:ram300@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, September 24, 2002 2:08 PM To: Chrysler 300 Club Listverver; John Hertog Subject: Re: [Chrysler300] popping Hi John Is it possible that fuel flow is somehow being impeded through internals of the rams? Excess fuel sitting in the rams?
