After the car warms right up and I run it for a while, when I stop at a light (idle), the exhaust makes distinctive "pop" sounds. This only happens after the car has been run and only at idle.
Any ideas/suggestions? Possible exhaust leak? Car running rich?
Any help would be apprciated.
THANKS!!

Steve,check the system for any leaks. Is the pop loud enough to hear inside the car?

I will check when I get home. Yes, the pops are loud enough to hear from the inside of the car with the windows rolled up!

That sounds like a slight misfire.There is no miss under load?

You may even have a slightly bent exhaust valve. Is there even the slightest chance you ever over-revved it? If you dont find any exhaust leaks, then check your compression.
