Re: Bad cat or not?
I have obtained the back-pressure tester Tuesday and tomorrow will be the first chance I have to test the exhaust pressure. I will be following instructions I found somewhere to do this correctly.
Also, note I confirmed today at 212 miles on the trip odometer after filling up with 19.197 gallons of gas that I am getting a WHOPPING 11 MPG. I TOLD THOSE SUCKERS AT MY TRUSTED SHOP IT DID NOT FEEL LIKE IT PULLED AS HARD AS IT USED TO! THOUGH ITS A VAN N ALL I KNEW IT WASN'T GIVING ME THE POWER IT USED TO. AND THEN THEY SAID JUST DRIVE IT A LITTLE MORE AND BREAK IT IN!?!?!??!)@(*$)*_+!+_ aRRGGghhHHH !!! I mean do you have to break in EVERY new car you buy till it gets you better gas mileage? I DO NOT THINK SO. NEW ENGINE should mean BETTER gas mileage to BOOT as far as I'm concerned.
Anyway, I'll prove it tomorrow and I will be very very surprised if I am wrong about the CAT needing replacement at this point.
