Backfiring is caused by incorrect timing, or plug wires installed incorrectly which messes up the firing order. Make sure your plug wires are installed correctly. Can also be caused by an overly rich fuel air mixture.

Back fire can be caused by improper ignition or the wrong fuel air mixture. With the engine off remove the air cleaner and look below it. If there is fuel in the pipe then the carburetor is not stopping the flow of fuel and it needs a rebuild.
