    No... that is not normal. A backfire can be indicative of a lean condition caused by a vacuum leak, clogged injectors, or a dirty fuel filter. Start with the basics: Any codes being set? Check your fuel pressure. Check underhood for any cracked or broken vacuum lines that would allow unmetered air to enter the engine and result in a lean A/F. Fix the problem before you cause damage by driving the car. There are other possibilities, but I would start with the above.

    a P0300 will cause your backfiring. Plugs and wires is a good place to start but it also be caused by a dirty MAF, vacuum leak, etc. Also run some injector cleaner through to be on the safe side
