Catalyst Missing On Honda Accord 07 by baba4thegehs: 7:26am On Apr 10, 2022
Good day everyone.
Bought a Honda Accord 07 today, but my mechanic noticed there is no Catalyst in the car, he said it would cost about 90k to get a replacement or I get someone to manually create a makeshift one for the car. I honestly don't want to spend much to fix the car at the moment.

I need an advise on what to do??

Please help

Ignore the catalyst issue..it only causes issues if the catalyst port is blocked leading to a suffocated engine... If na empty e empty, ignore and fire down grin

If you are not comfortable with the check engine light concerning the catalyst codes, get a spacer installed..

No go spend money put catalyst wey another mechanic abi panel beater go still thief later

It drives fine, but may potential affect the engine overtime and heavy fuel consumption, well according to my mechanic

Thanks, but does the spacer also work fine, in terms of feul consumption and strain on the engine.

Catalyst has nothing to do with fuel consumption... It's business is keeping engine emissions under approved limit.. but that doesn't concern us here in Nigeria

Its only if the Catalyst port is blocked that engine will be strained... if its empty, engine will be very fine...

i don’t even understand what you mean by strain on the engine. The cat is actually the one that adds stress on you engine. Your engine breath's better without it.
