Well, with the amount of threads here that talk about this "fix" to get rid of your exhaust/o2 sensor related CEL, no one did a DIY for how to do it with the parts available locally. I'm going to verify the parts as I think I've got these same ones at home already, and will drill one out and install this weekend and let you folks know how it works for us.

No use in reinventing the wheel, so here's a great DIY I found for this, with the part numbers included.

Same parts, same process folks.

Ericy, we do, but no one posted specifics on what worked or didn't, or just mentioned one on ebay. Well, there are tons, and the ones on ebay are more than you'd pay to get your own from a local auto store.

Figured it would be good to have a DIY with the proper info instead of a bunch of "uhm, you can do this I heard" stuff.

Well, Megan Racing makes a one piece version of this that fits for us, I'm getting one of those to test out and then we'll have it for sale on KFX also.

There'll be several options for everyone.

Just finished doing this. So far according the proscan the cat tests haven't been completed. I'm sure it'll finish tomorrow on my way to school, so I should have an update tomorrow morning.

Well according to proscan the code is pending 02.gif guess I'm going to have to use both nonfoulers after all. (Tried to get away with just using one)
