hmmm, I think you may be running a bit rich. Do this, check your spark plugs, and wires. Im almost 100% sure that it will fix your problem.

ok, this isn't probably your problem, but how about the spark plug wires, are those good? My friend has a 98 elantra, and his wires made his car act up bad when it was only like 3 years old.

its definitely the 02 sensor... and if you just put a hiflow cat on it, then you gotta pull the cables from the battery for 5 mins and it resets your engine computer, try that... if it doesnt work, buy a new 02 sensor
