Question Coil Pack/Spark Plug Issue?

While cruising around 40kph,
a sudden sound (tak, tak, tak) comes from the engine bay can be heard and then i can see a puff of black smoke from the exhaust. Is this related to the coil pack/ spark plug issue.

if there's a mis-fire, you'll have a code...check for it.

as for it being your problem? who knows? it could just be some bad gasoline.

run the tank out and then fill it with some good fuel and see if that changes anything.
