When you conquer a tb42s backfire! HA i could dance im that happy. Only had the car a month and the constant backfiring and rough running was doing my head in but today I finally got rid of it. Turns out it was just one of those simple things, I replaced the spark plugs (which turned out to be nackered) and bam no more backfire! just goes to show that something so small can make a big difference and it pays to start at the top. I know I was stressing hard trying to make it work and im so glad that its good now. Fingers crossed everything stays that way and I can concentrate on some other things.
enjoy the rest of your day ladies and gentlemen

Good ending now look at your motor running in the dark for any trace of leads arcing.
you may be surprised, if running dual fuel your electrics need to be spot on.
Don't some use those platinum type plugs??
