Default Cylinder miss on 8

Hi and thanks in advance for any help.
I have a 1997 Suburban it is throwing codes for a miss and cat. I think the one for the cat is from the miss.
I would change parts except that a lot of the time when turning left it makes a PHEWWW sound like compression is getting past a plug or something. and it gets real hard to turn.
any ideas?

Yeah. If your motor is missing you are damaging your CAT, the same as if you were burning oil. They don't tolerate that stuff for long, even from one cylinder. Put a compression test on your motor.
