    I sort of like the idea of the backfiring, especially at night. On those long lonely drives home in the dark, the back firing is sort of like a wake up call preventing you from dosing off ...

    It can also be caused by a rich condition.

    Backfiring on deceleration is usually caused by an exhaust manifold leak where the headers meet the heads. Check that your header bolts are tight. All it takes is a small leak to blow the gasket...

    Has this engine run right for you in the past? If so, what changes have you made? If it ran good in the past AND you know the timing mark on the balancer is in the correct place, then this should...

    I have a big block with a wide ratio Toploader. My rear ratio is 3.70 and is adequate for where and how I drive. 60 mph is 3,000 rpm, 80 is 4,000. I rarely drive on an interstate and took that...

    Look into the carb, open it wide open, are you getting an immediate accelerator pump shot of gas?

    Again I say check inside the distributor cap for corrosion. That will cause backfiring and hard starting.

    Backfire (through the exhaust) on deceleration is often due to an exhaust leak allowing air into the exhaust system. It could be at the header or any connections downstream from there.

    That's ancient gas.. I've never had so much to dump, but some ancient motors like my honda z50 will run on 5 year old gas. Other than that, you can light it in an oil drum, or find a safe spot...

    I'm going to assert the gunk on those plugs took a long time to build up. It's not new since you took it out of storage. So I'm not surprised it still runs bad. Start the debug tree.
