Isn't a leak down test where you fill the engine to the top of the carb with 
oil and see if any leaks out???

burnt valve/worn seat area can cause combustion to escape into the exhaust 
port.  If it's running rich you could have flame travel as well at the
exhaust port causing a pop.

A leakdown test is easy enough to do.

I'm pretty sure it's not too lean. Wouldn't a burnt valve affect preformance? 
It preforms perfectly.

if you saw the black smoke on robbs bumper you'd know it isn't running to lean.

There's a difference between pop and poop.

1) Too lean a mixture.
2) Burnt Exhaust Valve.

Are the number one / two that come to mind.

I found a thread of yours on the samba about exhaust popping. What's the 
verdict? My bus is doing the same crap intermittently.
