OK!

Goto Autozone,Napa, or whatever and get a pack of spark plug non-foulers .. I believe they are 18MM? or 14MM....

either way..

Now, take one of then and hone out the top part, so the o2 sensor can fit in it.

Screw the o2 sensor into it.

Screw that non-fouler into the the other fouler that has not been modified.

screw in the non-foulter back into the post-cat location.


Let me know if ya need something!

I think your just luck Arif... or your 2nd 02 sensor is bunged..

He is getting the CEL because of cat inneficiency (sp?)

Do waht I said. The ATP test pipe has holes yes, but they will not prevent a CEL
