2 posts on here about engine codes reminded me to look up the codes (Thanks Todd for the link in one of those 2 posts 
), and I saw this:
Since my spiffy scangauge II had told me that I was throwing P0304 for a while, and I had the CEL doing its strobe thing and then going solid yellow a fair amount, does this mean that my catalytic converter has bit the dust? The consensus here is to yank out at least the first 2 (do we _really_ need 4?!) with the Y pipe, but going the full replacement way is a bit costly...do I need to start putting my $$ into the exhaust fund?
It can't hurt, I guess, since I do still have some Flowmaster Super 44s floating around, so I could go for the whole setup, and from a previous post I've realized that going for the intake before the exhaust (which makes sense to me), is apparently bassackwards in the eyes of many here, so I could catch up with where ah should be, performance wise...
*Verbose-ness aside, how endangered are my catalytic converters?
(In my eyes, this is just another nail in the coffin for the loser who designed these emissions systems...though when the $$^$^ing pcv elbow broke and only the e-brake kept me from obliterating a nissan maxima, that coffin was nailed shut and buried....)
Miss Firing...who you meet when Miss Information tells you that your backfire is really your transmission, and you believe them....
