Why is my car bogging down?
After the car warms up a little it Boggs down after about 1k rpm it barely moves I checked if the fuel pump works and it does. This problem happened with out any warning; it drove fine but all of a sudden it became extremely sluggish.

Sounds like your catalytic converter is plugged up. Unbolt it from the exhaust and if your drives normal (albeit quite loud haha) then you have found your problem.

Good luck.
