my 2001 ford escape has a miss or hesitation and i took it to a shop and they think the catylitic converter is
stopping up. how can i figure this out is there a way
to test this. i have spent $90 and still do not know
whats wrong with my car.

i had plugs and wire put on last year and 1 coil pack
has been replaced.

If cat. was pluged engine would not accelerate and you would have a loud roar. Not likely in your case. Is a check engine light on? if yes go to Auto Zone they will code Free then post. If no Clean throttle bpody and MAF
