Protege 4-cyl

  • Manual transmission
  • 40,666 miles
Check engine light has been coming on for last year. Problem is with engine misfire/catalytic converter. We have replaced everything suggested: Spark plugs, wires, catalytic converter, engine tune up, new tires, etc. Problem worsening. Car riding rougher, worsening gas mileage.
