Get your exhaust looked at. The cutting out and popping back and fourth sounds like a plugged catalytic convertor.

sounds like a timing issue. your distributor shaft may be worn ($150) causing the timing to be off & not burning all the fuel in the cylinders. may also be the timing chain/belt & gears ($250-$500). get a basic tune up & oil change ($50) to start. if that doesnt help spend the $30 & have a shop do a diagnostic to it but dont agree to any service. take the diagnostic to at least 3 shops & ask what they suggest.

Describe the smell (gas, rotten eggs?) and how long after you start the engine before it smells and then how long before it's popping and cracking,
