Default 1989 Convertible all stock

Default 1989 Convertible 124,000 milesSo new symptom lately
changed out the fuel pump 2 weeks ago and now car starts much better
now occasionally I'm getting a backfire. not every time but once or twice driving around
never did that prior to the new fuel pump but that may not be the issue
previous owner removed the catalytic converter 3 yeas ago

This is the C3 forum, we stop at 1982. Try posting on the C4 pages, you'll get much more help over there. Good luck!
