'Causes of delayed combustion are widening of the spark plug gap, retarding the ignition timing, increasing pressure in the cylinder (load and compression ratio), and making combustion leaner. Furthermore, higher electrode temperature raises the spark plug discharge required voltage, resulting in partial burn, and continues with dampened combustion. Unless the combustion is completed before the intake valve opens, backfire occurs.'

I was quoting from this article
