losing power, funky smells

Post by mrpham »

hey everyone.

need some help and no idea what it could be.

my 94' roza has lost some power, fuel economy has gone worse and when I accelerate there will be either some fuel smells or just some funk stink.

a mate said it could be a old cat that needs replacement.

any help would be greatly appreciated.

I've also noticed that the car struggles when cold, this never used to be a problem.

I think the problem might be a bit more complex.

it's not that, it was the first thing I did when I bought the car.
