Getting hot when I go up hill and when at idle such as at a redlight replaced coolant temp. sensor, checked fan runs but doesn't kick on until gets real hot almost overheated,tried new thermostat. Could it be the cat. converter clogged causing this? did just recently smell slight odor like rotten eggs.
