Afternoon all.
I have a 2004 TB LT and for the past 2 weeks i have been having issues with my truck.
-Check engine lights comes on, stays on, blinks and reperats
-Rough idle and acceleration
-Lack of power
-Noticeable reduction in mpg
-Exhaust smells horrible like it running rich
I had a 2002 TB and around 160k i needed the catalytic converter replaced and all was well. My 04 has 167k and it feels like the same issues i was having before but i can remember for sure. My guess would be the catalytic converter needs to be replaced. I called some local exhaust shops about pricing and explained what was going on and they felt it wasn the cat and to start upfront and work back. They offered to help diagnose the issue.
Now all this has me wondering if it really is the cat. Any help or info would be greatly appreciated. Also, I'm no mechanic so take it easy on me with the lingo...haha
Thanks for any and all help,
Kevin
