A vacuum leak can do that. Check the gasket at the base of the throttle body for a vacuum leak.

Why does 92 caprice backfire after running for a while or heavy exceleration?

A backfire is caused by a misfire... a cylinder fails to ignite the fuel which may cause a stutter, it may also cause a back fire due to it pushing that un-ignited fuel into your manifold where it then ignites from the heat of the other cylinders and boom you have a backfire...


What is the weight of a caprice?

This depends on the year and generation of Caprice as well as specific accessory options. Around 1971 the Chevy Caprice weighed about 4,000 pounds, while in 1976 it weighed about 4,300 pounds. Various years had similar weight, however in the early 80s an effort was made to reduce weight. I own a 1985 Caprice Classic and it weighs over 4,500 pounds -- it has a V8 engine and several options that add weight to it. In 1991 the style and engineering of the Caprice changed a great deal. The cars were lighter -- overall about 4,000 pounds. The Chevy Caprice Wagons generally weighed more than sedans and coupes.
