Sulfur smell
With the xj running, If I pop the hood i can smell a sulfur/rotten egg smell coming from the left side of the engine compartment. What do you think this means?

do you have a cel?
A vacuum leak can make the computer see it running lean, then richen it up then clog the cat.
check it all out so you don't put a cat in then need another one in a few months.
