Your engine is running too lean, probably the result of either a vacuum leak or possibly a damaged EGR valve. You will damage the valves, pistons or who knows what if you don't take care of this problem immediately.

Why would a 2000 Explorer lose power and the cab fill with smoke and smell of sulfur The manifold was glowing red Is this a Catalytic Converter problem?

It could be running lean. Check the fuel filter. It could also be a vacuum leak or the EGR valve. It would probably be a good idea to not run it much until you've worked out the problem. There are quite a few possibilities, and some of them are not very expensive, but if the exhaust manifold is getting that hot you could be damaging your exhaust valves. If the exhaust manifold is glowing, it's not the cat-converter.

What makes a 2001 Yamaha 660cc raptor run hot with the pipes glowing red?

A 2001 Yamaha 660cc Raptor running hot with glowing exhaust pipes typically indicates an overly lean air-fuel mixture, which can result from a clogged fuel filter, dirty carburetors, or improper jetting. Additionally, insufficient airflow due to a blocked air filter or exhaust restrictions can exacerbate overheating. Other potential issues include incorrect ignition timing or a malfunctioning cooling system. Regular maintenance and proper tuning are essential to prevent these overheating issues.
