As i mounted the SS decats lately, i was wondering about differences in exhaust layout between earlier cars and late cars.
After reading some info at this forum and at Maseratilife, i was shocked to read about precatalyst prblems on later cars.
I read something about "rotten eggs smell", rattling noises etc. As first indications.
So my main question:
Is there some way to predict your main cats are going out?
If there are no faillures stored in the ECU, would everything be fine then?
Funny thing is, that in Holland they just hook up a tester to the car for checking the emissions.
If no failure is found, the car passes the dutch "mot" without problems.
(On earlier cars the exhaust gasses are still examined with exhaustgastesters.)
