So I have noticed recently with my 96 Cav that sometimes when I "take off" My car makes a poping noise under the hood Kind of sounds like a small back fire. Along with the poping noise the car seems to want to stall... Anyone have this problem? Or know what it is or how to fix it?

could have a faulty wire. put the old ones back on or try some others. then see if the problem goes away.

Very true... and tonight I'm thinking the spark plugs are bad... because the car is acting the same as it did just before I replaced them

the spark plugs might not be bad but not gapped to the right specs, cuz mine kinda did that and when i looked at them, they were all gapped right exept one was 2 millimeters off so i regapped it and it works fine now
