I had a similar experience after rebuilding a VW engine with my son. We installed it and proudly tried to start it. We tried everything we could think of to get it running...but after the tremendous back-fire we re-evaluated. Sure enough, we were looking at the engine (while it was out of the car) from the front. We had the spark plug wires reversed. We re-positioned them and it fired right up and ran like a champ!

Good luck with yours!
