Comment | My experience installing both new and used (often referred to as re-conditioned or rebuilt) converters is that they just don't work. In nearly every case that I have installed one, I've ended up replacing it with a factory catalyst when working on OBD2 vehicles. This has often been at cosiderable extra cost to me. I Feel any catalyst sold should meet OEM spec's, or at least perform well enough that it passes OBD2 self tests. If not it shouln't be sold. The cost to busneses and the consumer is much higher when a replacement part has to be replaced "again". I don't see this cost factored into your evaluation. If you could put a dollar figure on it, I'm sure it would be very large one. Please continue this action with my support. Mike Howe |
