Re: EML ???
Heya all,
I have had the same problem, main cat broke up after going into a pothole and giving it a good knock. Got the mechanic to remove the main cat, the precat is still there and working fine. If the engine is emissions tested before getting up to temperature then it should pass right? As the precats are primarily to remove harmful gases at low temps?
It was also "suggested" that copious amounts of wire wool in the exhaust would help to pass the emissions test?!!!!! Just wondering if any of this is true?
Or do i bite the bullet, remove the precats and get the main cat replaced for emission testing? " reasons I dont want to do this are 1. Cost, and 2. The noticeable power increase without the main cat
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
