Hello mate, that does sound bizzare! What noise does it make when it runs?

I trust that was on a closed private road, then?
Sounds like it could be worth having a careful look over your pipework, as Baz says...

i was wondering if it could be a plug cap, he said it sounds rough when running now and the backfire could be the intermitent spark. Possibly a coil perhaps?
