Re: Rotten Egg Smell

Oh man, don't overlook the most simplest of simples! (Which every mechanic always overlooks) Check the coolant to your tires! What do you think prevents them from getting too hot and melting?

I am unfamiliar with the term valve stem, is it where one mounts a breather filter? Because if so, my cousin's has lube on it, it was really big and the filter wouldnt slide on easily on his 4g63.

Re: Rotten Egg Smell

Ok this might be going a little bit too far on things you should check. But some people have been having problems with the gas for there power windows and locks. Try and get that filled to see if the windows will go up faster and down faster and the locks locking faster.

Re: Rotten Egg Smell

Wow, this thread is amazing, I never thought about these things. Don't forget to oil your gas pedal so it doesn't get stuck when you floor it. I hope nobody takes this thread seriously, imagine some people putting oil in their tires, sticking grease in their muffler, and adding coolant to their headlights. LMAO!

Re: Rotten Egg Smell

Does the Engine have a misfire? The smell of rotten eggs is usually cause by a rich fuel mixure or a misfire. You need to make sure the engine i running properly before replacing the cat.

Re: Rotten Egg Smell

When I had to replace my cat, my car wouldn't shift outta 1st gear, so I couldn't go no where. It was clogged, and ya smelt horribly awful. I think that it's all summed up that, you need a new cat. Maybe the one you have now is shedding too much or poops all over the place.

Sorry, I got out of hand. I just thought i'd put a little humor into my post. Def go wtih a non OEM. SOunds way better and flows more!
