Car Forum / Ford / Ford Mustang / April 2005H-pipe w/o cats and Check Engine !
Hey fellows, I was trying to save some $ of buyin aftermarket H-pipe and installin it. So I just went to a mechanic and ask him to take off the 2 back cats and empty the first ones, but later Check Engine light came on. I think it's the O2 sensors! i got the flowmaster mufflers too. Is there any way to fix this? any help would be appreciated. MIL eliminators. -Mike -- http://www.MeltAwayCellulite.com/ > Hey fellows, I was trying to save some $ of buyin aftermarket H-pipe and > installin it.

I'd imagine all you need to do is find the resistance the rear O2 sensors have when 'in range' of what is acceptable to the computer and add an appropriate resistor in line.

I haven't done it myself, but from what I've read here and elsewhere, it's just a snip-n-crimp job (or solder-n-heat shrink job, for those anal-retentive "reliability" types ;) ). You shouldn't have any trouble doing it yourself. This search has just about everything you need to know, and a wide variety of places to buy from: <http://www.google.com/search?q=MIL%20Eliminators> Signature/ Garth - '83 GL V6stang Hatch <Former MW #7> \ | My V6stang: http://www.v6stang.com/v6stang | | RAMFM Merchandise: http://www.cafeshops.com/ramfm | \ Mail pgp@v6stang.com for secure reply information / I agree w/ Garth.

There is a good chance you'll still need MIL eliminators, even with high flow cats. My "friend' (used to be, can't stand the clown now) has an H-pipe w/ 2 high-flow cats (97 GT) & his still gives a check engine light. BUT... my other friend w/ the SAME H-pipe doesn't get one (97 GT). It's weird! -Mike -- Melt away the Cellulite with Cellulean! http://www.MeltAwayCellulite.com/ > Save the environment and get a high flow cat h-pipe. > [quoted text clipped - 31 lines] > >> | RAMFM Merchandise: http://www.cafeshops.com/ramfm | > >> \ Mail pgp@v6stang.com for secure reply information / what's the difference b/ MIL eliminators and O2 simulators, if there's any? coz i went to a mechanic and he told me i need O2 simulators. is there any place sell them other than online! thnx Same thing -Mike -- Melt away the Cellulite with Cellulean! http://www.MeltAwayCellulite.com/ > what's the difference b/ MIL eliminators and O2 simulators, if there's any? > coz i went to a mechanic and he told me i need O2 simulators. is there any > place sell them other than online! > thnx >what's the difference b/ MIL eliminators and O2 simulators, if there's any? >coz i went to a mechanic and he told me i need O2 simulators. is there any >place sell them other than online! >thnx Sounds like the same thing. http://www.dallasmustang.com/index.mvc?p=9074 |
