Customer Reviews: CATALYTIC CONVERTERAugust 6, 2009 Francisco Camacho(U.S.A. N.J) GREAT CAT TO BAD IT DOSEN'T COME WITH GASKETS WENT TO PART'S STORE 5 TIME'S AND DIDN'T HAVE THE RIGHT GASKET HAD TO IMPROVISE
Good Fit, needs gaskets & boltsJune 3, 2010 Randman 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This cat delivers as promised. I changed out the old one and replaced the O2 sensor. No more check engine light. I only gave it four stars because it really should come with gaskets and bolts.
If you're going to do this yourself please go to your Honda dealership and buy the two gaskets required, they're about $10 each. Assuming the converter is old and rusted, you will not be able to reuse them. They're round hollow rings and are most likely rusted into their slots, one at the end of the flex pipe leading into the cat and one at the exit of the cat itself. Same with the bolts, the converter I replaced had the studs welded to it and could not be reused. Go to the hardware store and buy six sets of 3/8" x 1 1/2" long bolts & nuts (another $10.)
Also, it's highly recommended to replace the O2 sensor when replacing the cat. I bought the Bosch 13071. This turned out to be about 6" too long and is probably the correct part for the one in the manifold. I just put a loop in it. The correct sensor is probably the 13075. The reviews for the 13075 have people complaining it's too short. I assume they tried to use the short one meant for the cat in the manifold.
