Possible, though i feel like if i did that there would be worse consequences, however Its something I will keep in mind. I am also thinking that ignition timing could be an issue. Il be looking into both things tomorrow (spent the nice weekend rock climbing so didnt have time :P)

Ok so here is the deal, my cb350 was running aweful so I did a bit of a tune up and it was running totally awesome for about a week. What I did was this... i got new plugs, new orings for my jets, new petcock, checked the valve clearance, checked the points clearance, charged the battery, and...

Ok well i figured it out. I bit the bullet and spent the afternoon going over all of the gaps. I found that the left cylinder had gotten too tight making the exhaust valve open early or stay open. My point gaps were also too close. I also reset the cam chain tension and gave it some fresh oil...

I also have a 1973 CB350 that has had some backfire problems. Other then fixing all of the electrical which is a good place to start i have found that it is often the sign of a bad Diaphragm. My right cylinder was backfiring, and running odd even with the timing correct, the valves gaped...
