Sounds like you have carbon deposits in you cylinders. If you have a chunk of carbon in a cylinder after you shut it off it still can stay red hot and ignite un-spent fuel causing a backfire. I would recommend doing tera clean or you could do old trick with jug of water take of a vacuum line and suck in little bit of water at a time.. This will seam clean good for getting rid of carbon. Just don't let it suck up to much water at one time.
