I recommend you have this done by a qualified exhaust system repair shop. Make sure the catalytic converter is defective before you replace it, as they are very expensive.
It should last the life of the car if you maintain the car as you should. Let the engine start running rich and do nothing to repair this condition and it will destroy the converter. But keep the engine tuned up and running as it should and you will never have to replace the converter. NEVER had a problem with my 1996 HONDA ACCORD engine and CATALYTIC CONVERTER needed to be replaced at 220,000 MILES.
Your catalytic converter is at the top of your motor at the exhaust manifold take out the 4 14mm screws that connect your converter to your manifold drop down out the bottom of engine and replace another really simple fix
This really is a job best performed by a muffler shop.
The converter will cost from $275 to $325 depending on where you buy it. Labor to remove the old one and install a new one will be around $100.
The oxygen sensor on a 1999 Honda Civic is located on top of the catalytic converter. The catalytic converter is under the car.
The primary oxygen sensor is located before the catalytic on most Hondas depending on the year. If your Honda has the catalytic converter integrated to the exhaust manifold then you should find it on the manifold just before the catalytic converter.
NO!NO!
Cats cost around $150 for an aftermarket one. Not sure for dealer oem price
The manifold is considered before the catalytic converter.
It is located right by the catalytic converter and should be fairly easy to swap out. It is located right by the catalytic converter and should be fairly easy to swap out.
