The inside of a catalytic converter on most vehicles is of a "honey-comb" design. If it was to overheat for any length of time the "honey-comb" can melt down and cause a restriction in the exhaust flow, this condition would be a plugged converter. Whenever you continue to drive your vehicle with the check engine light "flashing" you risk a melt down situation costing you hundreds of dollars for replacement of the converter.

The life of your catalytic converter depends on the condition of the engine and the fuel you're using. If the fuel has the wrong additives, the catalytic converter can become plugged up. If the engine burns oil the oil vapor will build up on the catalytic converter and it can become plugged. Otherwise, if the catalytic converter isn't plugged, don't replace it.
