Now I am wondering if I put the correct amount in. So my question is to people who have had success w this method how much did you use? Did you pack the bung tight, snug or loose?? Lol I just read that last sentence back, sounds a bit perverted, my appologies
There are 2 kinds of codes that can pop up when installing test pipes.
1) Catalytic inefficeincy
2) Excessive O2 due to an air leak.


Find out what your code is and post it here.

If you have #2 its easy enough to fix.
If you have #1 I have a special material you can put into the nonfoulers to help clear it up.
