For this problem you should look into investing in an ignition system like msd and get a full set up. It's also a little strange that you are running on a stock fuel system. Usually injectors are needed to help add a better fuel system so honestly the fuel shouldn't be unburned... Also try investing in some gauges so you are able to keep track of your car.

I can't imagine a pathfinder shooting flames out of the tail pipe. Does anyone else find that image a little comedic?

my buddy Nick's (Nick M- Mod. in the Accord Forum) H22 Accord spits a good 2-4 foot flame on oocasion when he shifts from first to second. of course its running rich, but it looks so dope 
Its great when it scares unsuspecting motorists driving behind him.
