As the title says, my stock 72 1.7 is popping a lot on deceleration. I thought it was an exhaust leak, but everything is tight. I thought it could be the stocker muffler wearing out, so I swapped it out for a fairly new Bursch that came on the new to me 71. Still pops, but now it's a louder, meaner sounding pop instead of the wimpy pops from the stock muffler. Any ideas on what's causing it? Injection misadjusted? Timing? Help me, please, it's driving me nuts! Not that it was much of a drive.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif)

Martin hit on it... but he was probably masking a leaking fuel injector. One drop of fuel from an injector that isnt supposed to be firing and it will pop "right now".

Pull the injectors and coil wire off (pos. lead from coil not the coil wire) and spin the engine over and let them fire into a container of some sort so you can watch the pattern of the injectors while they are firing. Do this on both sides.. watch for a nice cone pattern AND watch to see if they dribble after firing.
