I've posted this on our local mustang boards to get opinions but thought i might get a quicker response here..
Last nite when I got about a half mile from home my car started making this horible poping noise from the engine bay. I had no clue what it was at the time, but after listening to it before leaving it at home to go to work, it sounds like compression bursting past one of the plugs. I'm not for sure as of yet but dad confirmed that that was what it sounded like.. so i'm going to check it this afternoon.
These plugs have been in well over a month (almost two) so i'm not sure what would have caused it to do that all of a sudden. I didn't race it at all last nite or run it hard... haven't really run it hard since the Tail of the Dragon, June 3rd... Any ideas what would all of a sudden cause that?
Originally I thought it was an exhaust leak but its much too loud for that... and it pops louder and faster the more gas i give it...
