what year make model?

what gas are your running?

a clogged cat will also cause the cel to flash and feel power less. if its clogged solid it can keep it from running like a potato stuffed in a tail pipe.

2001 GTP 101k, I'm running 91, the car has headers and magnaflow exhaust, not to sure if the cat is stock or not.
I was assuming with the plug being broke something in the motor must be messed up.
Sounds like I'm screwed. If it wasn't for bad luck I wouldn't have any.
The car instantly shut off after I revved it up.
