Intake backfire. Hard start became no start 1979 245 200 1979

Not on its own, but the poster replaced the timing belt. If he used it for reference..... but anyway, it's moot because it's a solid HB.

I wonder if a seriously out of adjustment valve or a lot of valve deposits would do this. It seems like it would run on the other cylinders and poorly on the affected one though.
