Your Car will be running rich on gas and it will then destroy your Cat Converter or plug it... And the smell coming out of the tailpipe will be raw gas (unburned fuel) or like rotten egg...

Well at least its not as bad as I thought it would be. How much do they usually go for?. I guess i gotta change them soon

Well I hope thats what it is at least because the engine light came one before i got home and i checked the ecu and it blinks red twice.
