    Car sounds like crap after storage.

    I brought my car out of storage this past weekend and its running like crap. This is the third year in a row that it went into winter storage and I took the same measures to make sure the car would be okay.
    It makes a bit of a popping sound when I’m on the gas.

    What are the symptoms of a bad O2 sensor?
    What are the symptoms of a bad AFM?

    Thanks

      That's what I was thinking. Was there gas in it when you put it into hibernation?

        I put a full tank of "gold" gas. After going through a full tank of gas the car feels 75% better but not 100%.

        Any ideas.
        It makes a stange sound (pop) when i'm on the gas.

          I'm not really big on engine driveability, so I dunno really. But the Buick I drove for a while "popped" when I got on the car because it had water in the fuel tank. Maybe try some heet or whatever, water remover and see if it helps.
