what would cause Back fire?
Tonight i was driving home the car was sluggish (very sluggish) like it was adding to much fuel or something but i was driving home i step on the gas and i hear POP and i swear they flames must have been 4 feet long from the dual tips. It was insanly bright..... No one saw it tho....
What would cause this? the car has been acting sluggish today..... it all started when i was changing the coolant and got the engine wet...

Lots of things it could be;
Incorrect Ignition Timing
Malfunctioning Electronic Spark Advance System
Leaking Intake System
Incorrect Idle speed
Defective TPS or Fuel Pressure Sensor
Defective ACV or AAV
Malfuctioning BAC
Leaking Injectors
Faulty AFM / Intake Temp Comtroll
Defective EGR
Start Checking one by one. Run your engine codes too, it might tell you something. Just a thought

The car is running rich. Various reasons as stated above. If you don't have any emissions equipment, it is fairly normal for the car to backfire.
