I crawled under my car last night to see why I might have backfire. I figured maybe some piece of exhaust hardware had loosened itself up. Nope, everything looks good.

I'm thinking the issue is carbs, since that's the last thing I played with. What should I check next?

TIA,

here is where the speculation starts. at 3000 to 3100 rpm my car would sneeze on the left side. the transition point. pulled idle jets, blewout circuit, gone. then i threw away the idle screw on the pass side carb and used the drop rod to adjust flow. one idle screw does the work. got to have a good linkage tho.
