Will still try to check my fuel trims to see if anything else is being difficult.

Those converters are "high flow" because there isn't material in them to clean the gases.

Just get a grinding bit got a die grinder and use your drill to make the drilled holes larger.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

14 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

1 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

Hello everyone, I bought a couple of Dorman Spark Plug Non-Foulers (42009) to use as spacers for my O2 sensors but things didn't work as intended.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hello everyone, I bought a couple of Dorman Spark Plug Non-Foulers (42009) to use as spacers for my O2 sensors but things didn't work as intended. I drilled out the hole to 1/2" but the O2 sensors I have from Bosch are approximately 5/8" in diameter instead of 1/2" like normal O2 sensors. Does anyone know of any spacers I can buy that would be just plug and play? If not, I'd have to find a 5/8" drill bit as I don't own anything over 1/2".

I'm having P0420 and P0430 and I just bought these new high flow cats. I'm not buying another set of cats to fix the issue.

POST 4Original post

Quotes source post: 17683791

Those codes don't always mean the cats are the problem. Have you looked at fuel trim responsiveness for instance?

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

That's one of the few things on my list I haven't checked yet. I'll try to check those when I get home from work. I hope my diagnostic tool is capable of seeing that info. I appreciate the suggestion.

I'm going to a friend's house after work tomorrow to drill a larger hole for the spacers.

So your O2 sensors look like these? I'm not sure why some sensors have different heads.

Yup - that�s what they look like.

Awesome, thank you! If I can't drill these holes out correctly, I'll buy some of those. Will still try to check my fuel trims to see if anything else is being difficult.

POST 14 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I believe this tells me that the positive 10% means I'm running lean? I did some tests but I'm not 100% sure how to decipher it all.
