PDB24 Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 My mechanic tells me that my front cat is clogged. (It's a 97 OBW with 125k mi) I am planning on attempting to replace it on my own. Any thoughts on the following: What would cause it to clog? Do I have to replace the front and the rear cats or can I just replace the front one? Would a universal cat that combines the front and back cats work well enough? (I drive in CA.) Can anyone suggest a site that I can order a new cat(s) at a good price? -Thanks!

Sorry I can't help you too much with your other questions, but here's a link to a source for cats. You might want to give them a call, because they don't have a price listed for a CA model for your car... http://www.import-catalytic-converter-warehouse.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
