The egg smell would be from the CAT ( catylitic convertor ) on the exhaust .If the fan is running all the time , usually a sign of overheating . First check the coolant level .Losing power could be a plug , plug lead or coil pack ( whatever is fitted on that model )breaking down . If not firing on all cyls . this affects CAT due to unburnt fuel .
