My muffler has a hole and my car sometimes backfires.

I was making a left turn at the light and my car just shut down and its most likely due to the hole in the muffler.

Pretty dangerous situation for me so i need to a new muffler so the air flow is even and i need my carb adjusted so i have it running smoothly as possible..

Its already 110 degrees here.

Any idea how much it is to replace it?
Also i changed the o2 sensor, spark plugs, fuel filter. I got plug wires but i didnt install them yet.

Could it be that if i change the muffler, then all oi need is adjustments to the carb to make it run good?

I mean the car seriously has only 77,000 original miles.
 
sounds to me that you need to take it to get checked out. need carb adjustment, might need to get new plugs and wires also and timing adjustment. mufflers run about $300. muffler shop could just weld or replace damaged part for cheaper.
