Car sputters......Y?
I got a 94 civic and the dam thing keeps wanting to stall. When i start it it idle's fine, but after a minute or two it will stall. When i go to rev it up the muffler makes a sputtering sound. It sounds like a dam gurgle. Why is it doing this?

well i am also hearing little pops most of the time when the engine has only been running for 5 mins. From what i have learned, it might be just that the gas is bad, so that is the next thing im going to be doing, followed by a full tuneup

Bad spark plugs is my guess.
