Backfire usually means spark issues to me....

Do you live anywhere where it is cold enough to cause condensation to
freeze up? I note the use of the word petrol, but just around freezing temps and non or low use of the gas with less than a full tank in it can cause a lot of condensation in the gas tank. This can plug up the pickup sock/filter in the tank with ice beads. Maybe try some gas line antifreeze?
