Default studdering like crazy

I just got my check engine light to go off for emissons by buying a new gas cap and know that i don't have a evap leak my car studders like 5 times after stopping. Wether i put it in neutral or not and if i take off hard or nice and easy it will studder 5 times but once it's done studdering it's fine. I have recently replaced the plugs and wires. Someone please help.

Did a tranny flush not long ago. The engine it self studders from any kind of stop and try to go whether i'm into it or babying it. Once it studders five times from a stop its fine. Also i've noticed my car smells like unburnt gas if i'm into it while it's studdering. I have no engine codes nor do i have pending codes.

well...i knew it was studdering but i didnt know why....so i kept driving it and then one time it studdered so bad that my cylinder just made a loud pop...the gas and air finally just built up and caught....so that threw the cel and i checked it and it was misfire in cylinder 4....so i just got new plugs and its been 6 months since then and i think it might be doing it again....so dont go out and get some msd plugs if our cars will just mess em up AGAIN...or who knows maybe it will work....
