1996 ford escort 1.9 L mileage 91,000. Engine runs fine when cold, as soon as it get to normal operating temp, loses power and sluggish when starting from a stopped position. Already replaced EGR solenoid, EGR working fine , replaced front oxygen sensor, replaced catalytic converter cause it was glowing red. None of the thing solved anything and converter still glows red. No codes showing up either. Also getting extremely bad gas milage used to get about 300 miles per tank now getting about 150.
