Absolutely not so - lean fuel mixture will backfire every time and it has a different sound to it, more of a crack sound like a whip and an ignition backfire is much shorter in duration and muffled - with Weber DCOE especially. Air leaks past the venturi i.e. manifold gasket, worn butterfly shaft etc. and of course retarded ignition timing, stuck mechanical advance mechanism.
