Engine backfires are one of the most obvious symptoms of car trouble, and they are annoying and potentially damaging to the car’s exhaust and catalytic mechanisms.

Backfires occur for various reasons, and may be accompanied by a Check Engine light.

Common reasons for this to happen:

  • When moisture or resistance in the car’s electronic ignition system allows a crossover generation of current to the wrong cylinder.

  • A lean mixture caused by either an engine vacuum leak or low fuel-pump pressure.

  • A faulty air injection check valve (part of the car’s emission control system) allows too much air into the car’s exhaust system.

  • A failed air intake boot can cause a backfire by altering the feedback voltage to the PCM.

  • Faulty ignition components or spark plugs may also cause backfires if the ignition timing drifts off or the plugs fire intermittently.

  • An exhaust leak such as broken welds or other small holes can take in cool air during deceleration and cause a popping or backfiring in the exhaust system.

What to expect:

A top-rated mobile mechanic will come to your home or office to determine the source and cause of the engine backfiring, and will then provide a detailed inspection report that includes the scope and cost of the necessary repairs.

How important is this service?

Backfires generate sudden high-pressure events in the exhaust system, and can do serious damage if left unchecked. Have the car inspected by a professional mechanic as soon as possible.

Fiat 500 L4-1.4L - Manual Transmission Shift Cable - Silver Spring, Maryland
For my first experience/service with Your Mechanic dotcom, I have been very fortunate to be helped by Efrain. Not only is he an experienced mechanic (both commercial and private vehicle experience), but a service provider who can be both professional and personable, putting you at ease right away with his expertise, patience, thoroughness, and friendly 'can do' work ethic. I knew I had the right mechanic when we both shared a passion for European "hot hatch" cars (Fiat 500 Abarth, VW Beetle and GTI, etc). His initial investigation of the manual gear shifter issue was efficient yet thorough. When he returned for the scheduled service, I really appreciated that he accommodated my interest to learn more about the car and fixing the issue, as I was able to learn from him while he was working -- Efrain is a natural teacher and instructor! I was also impressed with his time management skills -- he has always arrived early to the appointments and finished quickly and efficiently (before expected time-frame). Overall, he has provided impeccable service, earned my trust and respect for both him and the Your Mechanic company, and easily earned a 5-of-5 star rating! Thank you Efrain, looking forward to working with you in the future.
