Backfiring when throttle applied

Have an old Cat T50C LP gas powered with a 1404 engine forklift. Idles great, backfires and run rough when throttle applied. No apparent gas leaks. Timing correct, rebuilt carburetor and mixer. Help!

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
