Will a 99 cougar v6 run ok with the catalytic converters gutted?

The check engine light will be on due to the empty catalytic converters not being efficient. On 96 and up vehicles the computer monitors the efficiency of the converters. Not to mention "gutting" a converter is illegal.


Why does my engine light blink on and off continuously?

A flashing check engine light indicates that you have problem that will damage the catalytic converter. You should have the check engine light checked very quick/tomorrow,if not sooner. converters cost over $800.00.

How do you bypass the check engine light once you remove the catalytic converter?

You can't.


What about the honeycomb in a converter is it safe to break apart?

There is no reason to do this. Modern catalytic converters do not restrict your exhaust flow. All you will gain by breaking it out is a check engine light coming on that will never go away. If your check engine light is already on for a catalytic converter problem removing the honeycomb will not fix it.


How do you know when the catalytic converters are bad?

Depending on what year vehicle you have, with 1996 and newer the check engine light will illuminate and spit out codes like P0420 and P0430.


How do you make 02sensors worke with no converters?

They will still work with no converters. The O2 sensor downstream from the catalytic converter is there to monitor the function of the converter its self. So if you remove the converter, the second sensor will trigger the "check engine" light. The sensors (and the entire engine its self) is not effected, however. The light is basically just telling you the converter is no longer working, which is no surprise if it has been removed.

Where is a Catalytic converter on 2005 Mitsubishi Lancer?

I'm not a mechanic, but I have a check engine light going off in my car and the mechanic I saw recently showed me a diagram. There are 2 catalytic converters, and two oxygen sensors; 1 in the engine, and one near the end of the exhaust. Hope that helps.


Check Engine Light came on in your 2002 Nissan Sentra mechanic checked code said it was an oxygen sensor had it replaced 3 times light keeps coming on What should you do?

It might be the catalytic converters. My 2002 had the check engine light on and it was a bad cat.
