check your fuel filter, if it has been changed lately. if so it could be that the cat. converter may be plugged.

A bad cat is the #1 most comonly diagnosed problem by people who don't know what they are talking about. You have not given us anywhere near enough information to be able to help. My best advice is that you ask for help in your regional forum. That way someone that lives near you can see the problem in person. Also for future reference this belongs in the maintenance forum. This thread will most likely be moved there shortly.

fill out your profile, if you type in cavalier with 0 performance mods then you found out your problem

even with mods you may still find yourself wanting more

Also, you dont need to cross-post. Expect atleast one of the threads to be locked.
