Rotten Egg Smell..Bad Vibration.
While driving around tonight, i notice my car has a real bad vibration going on. It shakes from corner to corner inside the vehicle, when WOT it gets horrible in higher rpms. Could it be my driveshaft? Maybe my UV Joints?
I know the rotten egg smell is from the cats being clogged up, but im replacing them with a h pipe im ordering in a couple of days, could that cause the vibration?

sounds like you are running rich. Thats what 99% of the time the rotten egg smell is. Have that checked out. Especially with the vibration. Seems like maybe your not igniting the fuel. Missing. Check to make sure all wires are in good shape and away from the header/manifold. When was the last time you replaced the sparkplugs? Any cracks in your dist? How is the coil?

the rotten egg smell and vibration are probably related!!!! it has a miss probably and in dumping unburt raw fuel into the exhaust!! you need to see if it's running bad cause a vaccum leak?? bad wire???? injector stuck open??? ect ect!!!! could be alot of things

i actually do smell gas more now, i was ordering plugs and wires and cap and rotor tomorrow, and im checking my driveshaft. i do have a little vacuum leak, i heard a whistling noise for the past couple of days but never got to it because of work, now that noise is gone and it does everything i said it was doing

I checked some things out today, found no vacuum leaks. I looked at my spark plug wires. and on the driver side. the 3rd spark plug looking from the front of the car , the wire isnt fully onto the plug it looks like. You can perfectly read the Bosch brand on the spark plug. and of course i tried minglin with it and stuff but it wont go any further

Looked more into this issue, got underneath the car and saw its leaking some kind of fluid right past the catalyctic converters are. I havent been able to see the color of the fluid or anything, im all dressed up for stuff. It looks like a purple fluid also. I'm thinking maybe its not leaking from the exhaust, but leaking from the tranny onto the exhaust? I do have to rebuild the tranny, im doing that next week.
I'm thinking the shaking and the smell are comming from the verts, if it IS leaking from the exhaust, could it be my cats are stopped up?
