I took it to the shop because it was shaking and not accelerating. they said that the catalytic convertor was bad and the number 4 and 6 core oak was misfiring. they changed both but now the are saying I need a motor. the only major work that has been done on my car is a vavle cover gaskest was put on it. I don't understand why I need a motor now?

Have the engine compression checked both wet and dry tests before you get a new engine.
