Message:
1994 3.9L V6 140,000 miles When I let off of the gas pedal going down hill or decelerating to a light I get very slight but continuous backfiring. If I apply the slightest gas it goes away. My last Dakota was dead silent Is this the sign of problem to come? Am I correct in assuming there should be no fuel flow when the truck is decelerating with no gas pedal?

I dont think it is anything to worry about, mine does that to. Its allways done it since we bought the truck 160000 miles ago in 93.

I replaced my O2 sensor and the backfiring went away.
