wierd things going on with the car
Lately i have been hearing some like popping noises, almost like a tire going flat or somthing. I havent noticed it happening at any specific times or anything, but then today sitting at the light on my way home, there was alot louder pop, then it smelled like radiator fluid or somthing really strong, so i pull over to check what it was and i didnt see anything leaking and all my tires were fine, does anyone have ANY idea what it is?

Have you lost horsepower? After driving your car for a long period of time check to see if one of your cats are glowing red.

i dont know, it does feel alot more sluggish but i figured thats because i added weight with the system, and i never drive long enough to get the cats glowing...would i get a fresh gas wiff every once in a while if that was the problem?

Replace your spark plugs. If that doesn't help, it's possible a coil on plug unit is going bad.

It is deffinatly my car, last night driving to get my Gf it did it again while just cruzing around 50. It sounded like it came from the back, but i could be mistaken. I am just going to take it into the dealership in a few minutes and let them deal with it.
Well?
