Homie is sharing his knowledge and skyline chilling on the back..
Just did this the past week on my vehicle.
2000 Camry 5SFE @155k miles.
CEL P0420
Went out and bought from Walmart:
2.5 gals of Purple Power Degreaser
18 gallon capacity storage bin
Took off the exhaust manifold/CAT combo and soaked it in the bin for 24 hours.
I poured all 2.5 gallons and topped it off with another 1.5 gallon of water to submerge a large portion of the manifold.
After taking the manifold out, I rinsed it thoroughly and then dunked it generously a few more times in the bin that's now filled with clean water.
Once the part is rinsed and free from degreaser, I dried it off using a blower and then letting it bake in the sun.
The soaking dissolved and loosen large amounts of carbon buildup.
Upon reassembly and test drive, the engine response is smoother and the hesitation on hard acceleration is gone.
Gonna take a mental note and see how it performs the coming weeks.
So far I am convinced it cleaned up the cat really well!
Any alternative for Purple power
@@SafeShifter I assume any similar industrial degreaser sold at home improvement stores will provide similar results.
@@2unknown thank you!!
LA's Totally Awesome at dollar tree.
Update?
I did this it worked ! Takes a long time 12-16 hours to be really effective.
2012 Hyudai Sonata with 277k miles on it. Check engine light came on; code for catalytic converter. Put 1 gallon of lacquer thinner in the tank with half a tank of gas in it. Drove it on the freeway for 70 miles between 70-80mph, the next day, the check engine light was gone. It works.
Update?
Freeway driving and also sometimes, hammering on the outside of the cat to loosen up things. The hammer trick fixed my lean codes.
It actually works. Worked on mine. 2002 Ford Taurus. It was so clogged the car was stalling. I cleaned the one . I have , technically, 2 others . Walmart has sells purple power the cheapest. $12 for 2.5 gallons and $23 for 5 gallon.
Still good? Any update
Wow that’s amazingly clean
Wow! That does look good
good video, i just did something like this to my cat
I had this exact idea too
Great Video 😮
Trying it today on my pickup. I will let you know in a week once I reinstall.
Did it work?
@@danielfiore8865 It did clean my cats but the honeycombs were too melted for it to make an impact. If your car burns oil this is something that should be done proactively to prevent the cats from running too hot. Unfortunately, I had waited too long.
Tried this on my cat but it kept runing away
Brah WHAT.
Purple power is the stuff its the best cleaner for everthing
Has the engine code stayed off since cleaning it or did the code come back?
How to wash catlatic
Yes, and it won’t eat paint if you don’t dilute it
What city is this video in?
I couldn’t pass my smog. I did this and ran my car for a week after cleaning and was able to pass smog.
Any update?
I'm worried about stripping the bolts getting it off the truck...
Are most CATs removable like that? Not welded on?
I have a 4 cylinder 2004 Camry SE... CAT can be removed and cleaned without California smog inspection complaining about tampering?
Yeah, cats can be removed using a ratched. But they can be pretty tough to remove. Make sure you spray some WD40 onto the bolts before you attempt to remove it.
They are some videos on TH-cam that show this process thoroughly.
The leading CAT on the Camrys are combined with the exhaust manifold. It's one whole piece that needs to be taken off.
You'll need to use the large storage bin (roughly 18 gallon capacity) to fit it for soaking.
Recently did this on my CA 4-cyl 2000 Camry.
Taking a cat off for cleaning isn't tampering. Taking a cat off to remove the material for performance gains is considered tampering.
Wonder if u can pressure wash it after soaking it in purple power
Did you try it ?
Will it pass smog now , if that is required in your state
Yes
What is the name of the cleaner?
It would have been a better video if you’d have shown the tub before and after to see all the crud from the cat after you swill out the cat
That looks like a 69 Boss 302 or maybe a Boss 429 Fastback. Either one will make your chest rumble when it rolls on by.
use citric acid next time. It will make it like new.
Hi, my check engine light on today . It say catalytic converter defect . But I have change it one month ago . Anyway I erase the code and check engine light gone . So my question is will it come back again. If so how long it will take to come back. Thanks
Golf 5 ( 2008 )
1.4 patrol engine
I drove with bad kat about a week but no engine light on and after I drove another week without Kat no engine light on . When I change my both Kat and drove 500km not engine light. Then I put fuel injector cleaner and drove another 150 km . And after engine light on and it says on my obd2 Kat defect
guessing the o2 sensor based off other videos
Did you ever have any issues later on?
we need an update
Yes he only had one huge issue later on, his car blew up a day later. He’s dead now. RIP TH-cam cat cleaner guy.
will not remove these hard deposits resulting from high oil consumption
But on Google says, the water is not supposed to touch the honeycomb, as it will ruin it? I guess it isn't true?
Who knows, all I know it’s that Google works for the government :)
@@Codehulk7 hahaha
Why not leave it in vinegar for 24hrs?……… it cleans just about anything……… ( removes rust and other gunk )
Works for diesel catalitic too?
@@1799cm2 I’m assuming since it won’t eat through plastic but will remove paint, and rust as well as weaken oils, dirt etc……… I do this with all my rusted parts and greasy materials. As soon as 24 hours I dry them quickly then clean with rubbing alcohol then spray with clear or with paint then clear depending if I want to paint the parts.
What is purple power?
Is a degreaser super strong you can use it on everything rims ,car grease ,oil
Careful with aluminum because it’ll eat eat, great way to open parts by .001
GOIGLE SEARCH anything yu need to know
Does this really really work????
Yes just let it sit overnight and blow it with a leaf blower like in the second video
Just put a free flowing cat on. By one on eBay cheap cheap cheap
Anybody try Coca Cola yet?
So, a 60 years old person + will be under the car removing that shit? this is not the way.
It’s only for the people that need a different way
