Backfire

Asked by GuruXF5LM Nov 18, 2018 at 02:10 PM about the 1983 Chevrolet C/K 10 Silverado LB RWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My 83 siverdado was warming up this morning.
Then it backfired and blew black smoke and died.
Will not start now. Turns over just won't fire.
Replaced the bug rotor cap and wires. Any
suggestions?
