Thanks again Klaus. I'll post tomorrow what I find, exhaust-wise. If the cat is deemed bad, what would be the results if I 'emptied' the cat inside, instead of replacing it. Would it set other codes? It sounds (and is) crude, but we did that in the '70's by removing the cat, ramming a rod through it till it is an empty shell and reinstalling it. Or we eliminated the cat and installed a "test pipe". But that was before OBD11.
