ok so i know the cat failed horribly but it had to be due to something else going wrong, its a SOHC ZC 1.6L newly swapped has run great for over six months. i have swapped plug wires and rotor button, regular oil changes i mean the maintinance i have kept would make some people cry! so simply i ask wtf!
anyone had this problem?
any ideas?
help!!!!
well im mean we might need a little more details on the problems...is it missfiring if so isolate the cylinder or if its on multiple it might be the dizzy gonna need more info though

missfire on all about three thousand at the rev limit then sputters
so above 3000 rpms to redline its misfiring?

try a few known good dist. i've seen "new" dist from various autoparts stores bad out of the box...don't rule it out.
run down this list:
1. ngk plugs?
2. stock wires or ngk wires?
3. coil
4. icm
5. other wiring
just discovered north ga and mice and how they like cars. it's getting cold and they love to hide out in/eat car's wiring.
