Before anybody has thier car off the road whilst scratching thier heads - Before you bother checking the OBD for Codes....

Take The Catalytic Converter off!!!! Read ON......

Oh, I had everything wrong!!
So spent 3 weeks f4rting about changing this and changing that and changing this back for that and spark plugs and you name it --- the result.....................(how many times did i read similar from all over the world!)..............

As I was saying the result..........

Car kept reporting different codes
So i would dutifully Fix the offender
Car would run for a bit then bog down then stop


Over and Over

Soon.... (heard this anywhere guys).....
The car wouldnt run at all!!!!!!

So i took off the Cat..........Drilled out the molten core.............Slotted, in through the cat body, a piece of 2 and a quarter inch Stainless Pipe. Bolted it back on.

CAR IS FIXED...... It was the CAT all along!!!!!

Who do we thank for these things these days? Arnold Shwartzenegger?

Richard :mrgreen:
