When I accelerate I get hesitation, and it acts like it wants to die when I'm at a red light or stopped someplace. I replaced the air filter and spark plugs & put some fuel injector cleaner in the gas yesterday, now I'm hearing a ''backfire'' noise but it's coming from the engine.
It can be a few things that cause this.Mass air flow sensor,Map sensor,clogged fuel filter,timing not correct(cause by the knock sensor).I would replace the fuel filter first.Thats the cheapest thing.If problem still exists.Go to a local AutoZone or Pepboys and have them scan for a bad sensor code.Its FREE.Then replace what ever sensor is the problem
You might be running on one cylinder less due to missing spark (spark cable interrupt), poor gas mixture, which can be due to old gasket on the carb or some other air source like hose, just may need calibration of the ignition.

My A/C compressor makes noise at idle and upon acceleration. Noise goes away after car achieves speed. Compressor cycles off and on at about 10 second intervals. Neither cooling fan will work.....engine or A/C fan. Compressor needs replaced? Fan thermostat needs replaced? I don't know where the fan thermostat is.

With ignition off, if you turn on the headlights the ac fans come on and wont turn off until you disconnect the battery. If I pull the headlight relay, the engine says running with the headlights switch turned on. Also engine will die when turn signals are turned on.
