back firing munchkin

Hi, It's been a while since iv'e been on this sight. Through much appreciated help, I installed a T50 Munchkin about three years ago. All has been fine until recently, when the unit started back firing. I called in a serviceman. He regapped the glow plug and said he had to adjust the mix with his annilizer when it was recallebrated. He did not come back or return my calls. I just called another service company, but thought I'd run this by the wall to get some feed back on what any one thinks the problem might be. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
