Guest
hi there jus after a bit of advise basically i have de cated my car and ever since my car has been spluttering wen i am accelerating i put a code reader on it and it came back with bank 1 oxygen sensor below threshold . obviously because both lambda sensors are reading the same emissions now it must be cutting fuel due to telling itself it is running too rich . i would jus put the cat back on but i cut it open emptied it and welded bck up !!!!! Can ne 1 help lol !!!!

Here, there and everywhere ;)
You need specific de-cat software in order to run your gutted cat, until you have that done your car will have issues...

Dependant on where in the world you are will possibly determine who you can use for the software.
