rotten egg smell is "A typical" of a bad or clogged Cat. I thought everyone knew that.
Kinda like if oil is on the ground under your car, you have an oil leak. Be prepared. they aren't cheap.

You just need to beat on it more. They all smell like that after you pound them a while. Just a hot converter IMO. Probably good for it every now and then.

Could easily be your O2 sensor(s) going bad...
