Cool 2001 Smells

My 2001 f-150 seems like it is losing power. Its starts fine and about 1/2 mile it seems like it is losing power. I put it in park and revved the engine and it smelled like rotten eggs. Is it my converter or O2's going out. please can someone give me advice. I have nothing coming up as engine problems.

Sounds like it might be converters going bad.
If you go to an exhaust shop they can check to see if there flowing the right amount of air out your tail pipes.
