My car has no horse power when driving,it seems that something is blocked and it takes a while to gain speed?

i changed my EGR valve Oxygen sensor tranny filter and fluid?? i smell exhaust in my car ...if the cat is plugged,,where? if the exhaust is plugged where?

don't know how to solve problem?????My car has no horse power when driving,it seems that something is blocked and it takes a while to gain speed?
Don't just change the exhaust system either in parts or all together. A GOOD mechanic who KNOWS what he's doing will bypass the catalytic converter, and less likely but possible, the muffler. You could just have a bent, kinked, smahed exhaust pipe in the system. If bypassing components fixes the problem, you THEN change the part. The car can get pretty noisy doing this test just so you know.My car has no horse power when driving,it seems that something is blocked and it takes a while to gain speed?
You changed a lot of stuff for sure but is the air filter clean, do you know if you have enough fuel pressure? try some injector cleaner. good luckMy car has no horse power when driving,it seems that something is blocked and it takes a while to gain speed?
Plugged exhaust would be inside the muffler....change it

plugged cat is inside the cat....change it



No power.....change the fuel filterMy car has no horse power when driving,it seems that something is blocked and it takes a while to gain speed?
better you should change everything on the exhaust system

  1. Use a vacuum gauge placed on your egr valve and take a drill make a small hole in between two of the converters and see if you noticed the jumping up and down of the gauge is gone or has slowed down considerably. and just keep making holes until you can tell where the blockage is.
