Description of Problem: I have 1996 Cadillac Eldorado 4.6 Northstar, it threw a code for fpr so I replaced it. I also replaced the spark plug wires and plugs. I had the coil packs and coil pack board checked and my cat checked, they're good. The problem is when I'm at a dead stop and I give it gas it has no power and it makes popping sound towards the passenger side, but when it gets up to around 20 mph it picks up on power.

Check fuel pressure with a gauge and check compression it may be a valve problem. Most auto part stores rent that gauge.
