Question 1st to 2nd backfire...then liquid..

so i get out of school today at 1110 and go to lunch with some buddies...i take off out of the lot and go to shift into 2nd and i hear a nice little backfire...which i dont like...but it does it when its still cold and the guys that were behind me said that some sh*t poured out of my tailpipes...is this normal? oh and when i roll around at like 2K my car kind of gargles....like it is cooking somethin...kind of sounds like a computer working...that crunching/gargling sound....time to do the plugs and wires or do i have other problems?

Probably condensation draining from the tailpipe. Most cars do that.

How much water are you talking about? A few drops or a lot? A few drops could be condensation. A lot could be a blown head gasket or other problems. Check the oil to see if there is any water in it. It will look like a milkshake. If you have unusual noises, figure out what they are from before you drive the car any more. You might save yourself a lot of money and headaches...
