when the CTS goes bad the engine will be difficult to start and causes all sorts of problems if you get it going

the second O2 sensor pre cat needs to be removed but not disconnected sort of hung up out of the way and not in the system flow, of course you need to blank that hole

I have it in place but with an extention and a pin whole so it still gets some Exhaust its reads what should be read if there was a cat there, never had an o2 sensor code, check the readings b4 and after I did the test pipe and they are the same.. the car ran fine for 10k like this..
