Cataclean (120007-2PK) Fuel and Exhaust System Cleaner - 16 fl. oz., (Pack of 2)

The exhaust smelled funny kind of sulfurry, the dealer said that you had to replace all four oxygen sensors, 1400.00. So when the yellow light check engine comes on and drive it down to a quarter tank, toss in a cataclean, that was a year and a half ago, never saw yellow engine light again in the last 2 years, cleans the fuel system but the biggest thing is it cleans the O2 sensors and blast the catalytic converter , cleans it also, and that's the stinker, your two sensors before the engine light mileage was going down. We're not going as far on tankful, how to clean future catalytic converter cleaned clean your sensors pick up a couple miles per gallon, and yes you can tell the difference afterwards throttle responses is now. Works in any car.

I haven't yet had any problems with the CEL or smog-test results with my 1995 orphaned Isuzu Trooper LS. But I have kept spreadsheets with dates, mileage, expenses and smog-test results for the vehicle since I bought it used in 2002. CA requires me to smog-test the car every two years for annual registration, and CA has some tough standards. Worse -- they made the emissions standards tougher across the board in 2008. I understand, though: There was a time during the late 1960s when the smog here was so bad, I couldn't see the time on the university bell-tower from the edge of campus, and I could taste the air. It had a flavor like sour milk. Reviewing the smog-test results over the lasts 20 years, I see that the HC and NOx results are edging up. Further, the HC result for December, 2021 was 59, and the maximum allowable was 60. Well, folks, I aim to stave off disaster. What would that disaster be, anyway? I budget $1,000 annually for repair and replacement on my Trooper. Sometimes I exceed budget; sometimes I'm under budget. But I invested more than the budgeted amount over the last 5 years with various restorations and parts replacements. If added to the average expense of my ownership for the last 20 years together with the monthly insurance premium, the vehicle has cost me about $180 per month over 20 years with the original purchase price also included in the average. Not bad for a luxury SUV, when the car-mortgage and insurance over the same time for three successive new-car replacements less trade-in or resale value might be two or three times as much. Replacing the catalytic converter, the heated-oxygen sensor and ancillary exhaust parts would cost at least $1,000, assuming I can find the part. If it can be avoided, I'll be better off. This Trooper, in the sunset of the petroleum age, will likely outlast me in my own sunset years. I followed the directions, realizing that a person would like to get the full value out of a $30 bottle of Cata-Clean. So I found a 15-mile stretch of highway, with gas-stations at either end, and drove two miles to the nearest station with a quarter-tank of gas and the Cata-Clean in the tank. I ran the vehicle down the highway, then added exactly 1 gallon of gas for safety, returned to the first gas station, added another gallon, repeated the trip a few times until finally filling the entire tank. The vehicle runs noticeably better. I will repeat this operation in three months and then again, until my smog-test in December 2023. I hope to see some good results. Platinum doesn't deteriorate. So if the product does as promised, the cat-converter should be totally renewed. If I spend $150 on the product and save the $1,000 expense, my year-long project will be totally successful. How does it work? The product creates carboxylic acid for the exhaust, which cleans the cat-converter. There is no damage to the metal parts, and of course the manufacturer recommends using it every three months or so. Cata-Clean is recommended by smog-test technicians, and my retired-mechanic cousin, who has read up on the product, also seems to think it will be effective.

Worked. Does what it said it would

Would give 5 starts if the value was a bit lower. Product worked on my tundra 2007 limited, it was showing catalytic issues and lost power, within 5 to 10 miles truck regained power

I use it every couple months in my Mercedes diesel, and it keeps the injectors clean, and the car running smoothly

Didn't not work at all. 2016 chevy malibu P420 I used liqui moly and that got rid of the code long enough to get an inspection. This product did absolutely nothing.

Engine light reset.

Did not do much. did not removed the p0420 code..

Maravilloso, solucionó el problema, incluso noté que ya no se siente muy caliente la máquina

The produce required me to drive for awhile before kicking in but I was well aware of that

It took a 15 min drive for the engine light to go off.

Funciona bien como último recurso o mantenimiento preventivo para reducir la acumulación de hollín y mejorar el rendimiento, pero no reemplaza la necesidad de un convertidor nuevo si este está desgastado. puede funcionar para pasar pruebas de emisiones en vehículos con acumulación de carbono moderada.

I purchased this for my 2011 Honda CRV. The product is simple and easy to use. It did not cause any issues with my Engine. The engine light remained on after applying the treatment so it didn't help with clearing the light.
