I will know more tomorrow after a real test drive on it and keep you posted... Once again Thanks to everyone that has walked me thru this... Bob

Back firing usually means a lean condition.
If plugging the choke in makes it run bad after it's warmed up then something isn't right.
When working correctly the choke should slowly lean out the mixture. After a few minutes the choke should be fully extended blocking off any extra fuel.
