Did the early 1987 F250 extended cab long bed 4WD with the carburated 351 engine with auto trans originally come with a catalytic converter?

Some did and some didn't. I have the same vehicle with dual tanks. If it didn't come with a converter, these are the things to look for. Under the hood there will be a sticker that says no catalytic converter, the filler spout will be oversized for the leaded gas, and there will be no marking under the fuel gauge that say UNLEADED FUEL. All of that no converter.

Why is catalytic converter overheating?
A catalytic converter overheats due to an excess of unburned hydrocarbons reaching it through the exhaust stream for an extended period of time. This overworks the catalyst bed inside the converter, which then starts to become plugged, generating even more heat as it does. In short order, the converter will become a significant exhaust obstruction, causing the engine to overheat and lose power. Eventually, this will prevent the engine from running, due to the inability of the exhaust to escape, denying the engine the opportunity to "breathe"...
Can you drive your truck with the o2 sencor un plugged?
Yes. The system will go into limp mode. Performance will drop along with fuel mileage. Extended periods of running time with O2 sensor(s) disconnected may cause serious damage to the catalytic converter(s).

How many catalytic converters are on a 2000 Chevy Astro van?
The number of catalytic converters on a 2000 Chevy Astro van depends on the engine type and emission system configuration. The 2000 Chevy Astro van was available with two engine options: a 4.3-liter V6 engine or a 4.3-liter V6 engine with an extended range fuel tank. If the van has a standard 4.3-liter V6 engine, it would have one catalytic converter located in the exhaust system. If the van has an extended range fuel tank, it may have two catalytic converters, one located in the exhaust system before the fuel tank and another located after the fuel tank. However, it's important to note that the number of catalytic converters on a vehicle can also depend on regional emissions regulations and other factors, so it's always best to consult the vehicle's owner's manual or a qualified mechanic to confirm the number of catalytic converters on a specific vehicle.
Who formulated the Theory and Relativity?
Originally Albert Einstein, but many others have improved and extended it.
The verb to coin originally referred to money but was extended by analogy to refer to coined words?
Yes, that is correct. The verb "to coin" originally meant the minting of money. Over time, it was extended metaphorically to also mean creating or inventing new words or phrases.
How do you unclog a catalyt converter?
You can't, it has to be replaced. It can be done easily and fairly cheaply by almost any muffler shop. Converters don't clog or wear out if engine is running efficiently. Look at other potential issues as well to avoid a repeat with new one. Running too rich is almost always the cause for a convertor failure, but you should not be running that rich for an extended period under normal conditions.

Is idling a car engine for extended periods - over 6 hrs - harmful?
Yes, ideling your engine for extended periods of time is not recommended, due to the fact that carbon deposits can build up on the head of the pistons and CFC's (unburned gases) emitted out the tail pipe are more concentrated and harmful to the environment. Engine idling does have a couple of effects on the engine, the most severe is to the connecting rod bearings. Because of the relatively slow speed of the engine, more pressure is exerted on the bottom center and top center of the bearings. The faster the engine turns, the load gets spread out more evenly over the bearing surface. Prime vehicles for this kind of damage is police cars. Police cars spend an inordinate amount of time idling writing tickets, filling out reports and stake outs. I have replaced many a connecting rod bearing in police car engines because of this. The other effect is not so drastic. It is an idling engine may not get hot enough to start the catalytic convert working or hot enough to run efficiently. It may also load up the catalytic converter with fuel that could lead to an early demise of the catalytic converter.
