A leaking spark plug wire can cause a backfire out of the intake, but the most common cause is a burned intake valve. A burnt intake valve will allow leakage during the compression stroke back through the intake causing a popping backfire out of the intake manifold.
A backfire is caused by many different things. Using the wrong grade fuel will cause a backfire, as the engine's compression ratio is usually too high and will detonate the Air/Fuel mixture, causing a backfire. It can also be caused by advanced or retarded timing. Advanced timing will cause a backfire through the intake, as the spark occurs too early and ignites the Air/Fuel mixture before the intake valve is closed. Retarded timing causes a backfire through the exhaust as the spark occurs after the exhaust valve has opened. Your problem seems to be advanced timing. A backfire is caused by many different things.

No, backfire is usually caused by park plug wires that are installed incorrectly or an engine that is out of time. Fuel filter and pump will not cause backfire.
Incorrect Timing Can Cause Backfire.
Having no catalytic converter installed is illegal and can cause a myriad of problems. Probably not a backfire though.
Yes
Plug wires installed incorrectly. Click the link.
Normally you do not get carbon buildup on injectors. They can get gummed a little, or blocked, but that should not cause backfire. Check timing.
The chain can not backfire. If it is installed off time it can cause a backfire, which could conceivably damage a starter.
There are several things that can cause your 2000 Chevrolet to backfire and die. The most common cause is a plugged catalytic converter.
Yes, bad fuel can cause backfire, because bad fuel is not good to use. People should always get reed of their bad fuel.
Worn camshaft, bent pushrod, burned intake valve, incorrect firing order,
