Re: engine problem

If the muffler or catalytic converter was plugged up it would cause the symptoms you describe. Check the vacuum with a gauge at the intake manifold.. If it reads less than 18 inches the converter is plugged up. if you want, you could disconnect the exhaust where it goes into the converter. If engne starts and runs better you wil know it is plugged.
