No way!!! i never would have thought. that must have been one really plugged up cat!!! It is completely plugged, we had to remove the O2 sensor to get it started. The good news is that there is good oil pressure, it idles smooth and with the little driving I did the water temp ran cool. Looks like we'll have some fun with this one after all! Fred Explorer 1 |
