jlspec, could the oil in the tubes be leading to the overheating CAT? A complete tune-up may be beyond my meager mechanical abilities.
I was going to clean my MAF sensor, but couldn't find it??? My haynes manual shows it sitting on the air cleaner box, but mine is just a simple plastic box with the small temperature sensor. Am I missing something?
Any other suggestions for diagnostics to run???
Thanks for the responses.

You don't have a MAF. So at least that's one thing you don't have to do.
If all cylinders are firing, the oil in the tubes won't cause this.
In all honesty... it does sound like a clogged cat. I wish i could help more... but i don't have a cat on my car.
