    Yep, that would qualify as a big backfire.

    Hope you packed clean undies for your evening out?!

    Yep - been there done that in the 101 - in my case a momentary loss of ignition just as the engine was fuelling up as it was under load going up a hill - all the fuel mixture straight into the exhaust with no spark and then there was spark - one of the loudest bangs in history as the fuel ignited in the confines of the muffler.
