engine temps, slight backfire
I'm new to the forum and have just purchased an SRT-6 with 340 miles. Having owned only Toyotas for the past 15 years, I wonder if someone can enlighten me on the supercharged engine. When driving in town, the temp needle is just a tick above half-way. It goes to just under half-way when on the open road. When I rev the engine a bit (say 4k rpm), the exhaust emits a slight backfire. Is this normal?
I thought I'd post here because this is the engine forum. Thanks!!!
