Lacquer Thinner in fuel tank to clean the CAT?


Recommended Posts

P0420, 2007 FRSTR 65,000 miles (Wifey's kid hauler).

 

I'm chasing the code and was wondering if anyone has tried cleaning their CAT with agressive use of chemicals? IE lacquer thinner, or by removing and physically cleaning.

 

First problem in 65,000 miles so I can't complain but if I gotta buy a CAT I'm gonna be grumpy.

Well it's not that the manufacturers want to warranty emissions that long. Our friendly government requires it I believe, because the know individuals are say 93% more likely to not get it fixed or try to circumvent it if they have to pay for it out of their own pocket. We all pay for it in the end anyway.
