    anyone get the P0430 and P0420 codes

    "Catalyst system below threshold (bank 1 and 2)" or something like that?

    comments?

    this is similar to when I had my HF cats on...but that went away

    this the same thing?

    I guess the question is: has anyone running LTs and HFs ever NOT gotten these codes...

    No. because with the rears turned off OBDII is not going to report in the "ready" state. whatever that is... something like it needs for some set of signals to show as operational.

    So did these just pop up where it's been good for a while before? If that's the case then you can figure you were on the edge and you might try spacers/anti foulers. Seems those work for some people and they work for a while for others and they don't work at all for still others?

    Antifoulers...2 on each side on the rear 02's.Need to drill one to 7/16" and screw it into the other then screw both into the pipe and put the 02' in.....codes will go away.....if not stack a third.

    I dont know if this will work with the jeeps but on the trucks you can just tie the down stream sensors to the frame and no codes...just plug the holes...but this may just be a 10 thing..

    so what does the antifouler do?

    from what it looks like it just pulls the 02 sensor further away from the headdres?

    is that right?

    turns out the 18mm AntiFouler is much more difficult to find then I thought...

    14mm's are cake to get...not so much 18mm lol
