What does someone know about Turbo back fire. How common is it, what causes it and how dangerous is it. My Tradewinds is being towed into a shop in the morning and we are going home without it. :(
It's not backfire, it's called "bark" and you want to avoid it at all cost although in some instances it can be hard to avoid. It can end up snapping the shaft if it happens enough. Basically it's a sudden reversal of air pressure and direction when you lift your foot suddenly.
