Hi Tony

The P0420 code may be caused by unburned fuel. If you have a rough idle I would first check for intake manifold leaks and take a good look at the spark plugs. If these come up good, then I would drop the front pipe and look at the catalytic converter. It may be partally blocked or broken and causing the code and the problem.
