Oi. Leave me out of the handbags at dawn.

Considering the breadth of experience in this forum, and those that know the Alo and Gaz very well, I was simply asking a question in the context of some discussions around these motors and compressor surge when a lot of power is pulled rapidly. Supposedly, apart from power loss, it could result in a backfire (bang?).

This may be complete nonsense and was hoping someone could clarify if this is a known characteristic of those old engines.
