Re: catalytic converter failure? source? 200 91

posted by  someone claiming to be George Swift on  Wed Jan 3 13:51 CST 2001 [RELATED]

If the converter is not broken up, there is no reason to suspect that. A bad converter on a '91 is not un common, but I doubt that that is your problem. Is the temp high? If not forget the converter. Most aftermarket converters cost about $160.00 at a muffler shop. The problem is that they are commonly welded in place. That can make certain repairs a pain in the ass. Have your mechanic remove your converter for inspection if necessary. You are better off with that one if it is ok. Any DTC's?
