'98 Mystique started to give off a terrible smell. I understand it could be a bad O2 sensor/ Cat converter / or fuel. Anyone experience this?

Okay, if it is coming through your vents, check your cabin air filter (located in the passenger side, front, underneath the wiper cowls..
That can give off a HORRIBLE smell.. If it is THAT bad, you may have to clean out the ducting going into the car, as well.. May try a little baking soda to neutralize the smell(after cleaning the filter), but other than that, I couldn't advise on the duct cleaning..

If it smells like a skunk/rotten eggs...you've got cat problems. Have you got a check engine light (CEL) flashing?
