I have a 2007 sport with 111k on it. I keep getting that bank 2 below threshold which I think it means catalytic converter. I live in florida so if I got a test pipe or this.

Then I wouldnt need to spend 350 on a new catalytic converter so any advice is well received.

Also can I take catalytic off and soak it ?

thanks

Um, a catalytic converter from Rockauto is under $200. I don't think there's an actual way to resurrect a Cat, however that cataclear stuff or whatever it is will give you a clean run long enough to pass emissions usually.

That header you link looks like it's omitting the catalytic converter? That's certainly one way to put your exhaust back together, and I did inadvertantly drive a Ford Escort for years with a similar thing (car died; went to cut the cat out to scrap it; the "cat" was hollow and the sensors must have been altered to not throw a code; it must have come from the previous seller that way) , but I'd be hesitant about adopting any system like that that modifies the intended functioning of your car. Especially if the car will ever be emissions tested. No cat = failed emissions generally.

Someone correct me here if I'm wrong.

 

a spark plug spacer would do the trick!

 

ok so the code is the 0420 code bank 1 and here is the error

mid:$5f TID:$dc min 218.0 kpa max 218.0 kpa and current is 655.0kpa

mid $2f TID:$ec min 6216 max 53248 current 65520

mid: $30TID:$03 low sensor voltage for switch time calculation
min 106.73 % max0 current 655.2 %

This is the test results on a obd2 app called Torque. I have a blue tooth obd2 adapter.


What does a spark plug spacer do?

 

I just put new sparkplugs in and did a valve adjustment which I know it has no bearing. I have had this error for about 45k now and I am just tired of clearing it but my wife is taking the car on a trip so I would like to fix so she doesnt have to worry about it. I use good fuel and I put lucas oil in my tank once in a while.
