rev stumbling and exhaust pops

Well here I thought I was being thorough and fixing things gradually. I did the 02 sensor, new plugs, and was still scratching my head on how I'd get hesitation and what not. I also cleaned my ground points and the battery terminals. Still didn't help at all. Then I did a more thorough inspection of my vacuum lines, and the hose to the underside of my underhood resonator is busted off. I can't believe I never saw that. So after I fix that, I'm hoping I'll get it back to were it is sapposed to be as far as hesitations, and rev stumbling.

Ive noticed that my car will buck alittle but only when i get on at WOT. If i back off the throttle, it seems to solve the missfire until i can gain enough speed to use WOT.
On the old subie engines you could use Carb cleaner to find vacuum leaks... i wonder if that'll work on the EJ's as well.

Hehe, you check your wires? If you want you can borrow my magnecors for a test run when they get here to see if they cure it.

Be careful with carb cleaner, it will ruin old, dry rubber.
Werd.

I've got new wires, if that was directed at me.
