Hi Jim, Welcome to the forum

Do you mean 1 backlash as when there is a sudden and adverse reaction against a person's action?

backlash = reacción violenta

2 backfire as when plans fail to have the desired effect an instead have the opposite effect anticipated?

backfire = petardeo m detónaciones fpl

I've had another sudden thought: did you perhaps mean flashback ?

Answer 2

Is this a plumbing question, as in "backflush a drain"?

If so, you might consider reverse flush or backwash.
