My Car Just Backfired Really Bad
i started my car today and i reved it to about 3000 rpms and it backfired really bad, smoke came out and it smelled really bad. i just pressure washed my engine on monday and it was fine until i started it up today. i have drove it since i washed it about 4 times for about 30 minutes each and nothing happened. can anyone tell me whats wrong

Backfire or popped? A backfire is when the charge comes backwards through the intake and throttle body. If its in the tailpipe its a pop like unspent fuel. Did it pop any more after it warmed up?

hmmm.... check your oil real quick and see if it's discolored, or has any water in it, or anything out of the ordinary... if it looks ok your probably fine... how many miles you got on your car?
