When you said your car had a cat I made the assumption that it must be a California car and therefore has an O2 sensor ('cause that's the delusion that I have labored under until now) but I see on Alex' chart that it's not neccessarily the case. My earlier advice may not be completely applicable to your car. But I still think the rich condition probably lies with the base idle mixture. At any rate, that needs to be correct before diagnosing other problems.
