Mike,

The reason your engine is backfiring is because of the excess fuel burning
in the exhaust system due to too rich a setting.
.
.

When I am leaning at altitude, I lean until the engine backfires then I richen until it runs smoothly.

If richness is causing the backfire, why is the engine backfiring when it is too lean?
