Popping Backfiring Issue
I recently installed an Accel car and rotor kit along with Accel 8mm plug wires and Bosch +2 spark plugs. Since then my car backfires sometimes pops alot and doesnt stay running until the car has been driven for like 5-10 mintues.(car dies after being started and have to step on gas to start)
I havent replaced the coil yet though, could that be my problem. I also just changed to fuel filter and that didnt help the starting and running condition. I dont have smog or purge canister in car.

Check that your plug wires are all in the right spots.
