In my case it was a leaky NOS injector, that settled down over a few days.
Impressive flame out the back on deceleration!  Can also be leaking exhaust.

I think this came up not too long ago but...the my records must not have the
right subject line to find anything.
Question: 
 If FI '72 Std engine backfires when suddenly decelerating from fast highway
speed, without clutch in, just taking foot off accelerator, what does that
indicate?   Timing?  Clean distributor? Use higher octane gas? Other?
