What is wrong when your 1997 Dodge Intrepid backfires and is sluggish most of the time?

its broken. Have your spark plugs and wires checked. It sounds like you have one or more spark plugs that are not firing or are firing poorly. This may be the result of faulty wires or fouled plugs. You probably need new plugs and maybe new wires.

Then yours could also be fried. I Checked with the local dealer and they want $691 just for the part. https://www.trademotion.com wants $486 for it. Or you could visit your local juck yard and find one. any 93-96 Intrepid, LHS or Concorde should work, according to the dealer.
