Default Re: backfiring

Have you had the plug wires checked? Changed the plugs in my car a couple of weeks ago and it ran like crap. Would back fire & sputter but once I got moving at a decent speed as long as I didn't press down too hard on the gas everything was fine. I pulled the plug wires to change out the plugs with the ones I'd recently taken out and found out I had a bad wire. Changed out the wires and now it runs fine and the gas mileage is better. If you have a lot of miles on your car it wouldn't be a bad idea to change wires anyway.
