What would cause a catalytic converter to melt on a 1997 jeep grand Cherokee Laredo?

An engine that is performing at peak efficiency will burn all the fuel in the combustion chamber during the combustion process. An engine that is not performing properly, that is not burning all the fuel, will allow unburned or excess fuel to enter the exhaust system. When this excess or unburned fuel contacts the hot core of the converter it will ignite. This constant infusion of unburned fuel will cause temperatures to continuously rise above the designed operating temperature until the core of the catalytic converter will actually melt. Possible causes for the excess fuel entering the exhaust system are an incorrect fuel mixture, incorrect timing, corroded spark plugs, worn and cracked ignition wires, improper fuel pressure, a faulty oxygen sensor, sticking float, faulty fuel injector or a malfunctioning check valve. http://www.all-catalytic-converters.com/techtip3.html

What does code p0420 mean and what you need to do?

Code P0420 is a code for Catalyst efficiency. The computer is seeing the post Catalytic converter o2 sensor having too much activity. The Cat. should be cleaning the exaust of Hc, co, and Nox. The post cat o2 will read the o2 content in the exhaust and if it moves up and down too much or to high and low, the computer interperates that as the cat not ridding the exhaust of it's pollutants. This indicates that the converter is unable to preform properly. The problem could be a bad cat, o2 sensor (Pre- and/or post cat)or o2 sensor wires, or an air fuel mixture problem that has caused the cat to fail. Many other engine operating system failures can cause the converter to not work properly.

Where is the catalytic converter on a 1996 Ford Taurus?

Catalytic converters are located up towards the front of the exhaust system - typically right after the pipe comes down off the engine's exhaust manifolds. If the vehicle has a single exhaust system, there will be a "Y-pipe" bringing the two exhaust manifold pipes together - the catalytic converter will be just past this. If the car has dual exhaust, there will be a catalytic converter for each.
