Thanks James 🙏 appreciate that
@@AliMECH No Problem My Friend!!! :)
I see this as a temporary fix..
@@thedbcooperforum I understand. That's your opinion and I can respect that. But there are 43 likes on my comment.
@@jamesj.litteriojr.433 Well that makes it right, lol
More than half the hacks on UA-cam either don't work or are a temporary fix..
Using carpet cleaner, the exhaust now smells like Ocean Breeze. 😁
*This method for cleaning catalytic converters is unlike anything I've seen before! It seems to have done a great job.*
Thank you!
Excellent video and explanation. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience with us.
Thanks, glad it was helpful
How cool is this video!
Good job!
your white reservoir with its yellow cap on top just got me in the mood for sunny side-up eggs for breakfast. thanks
EGG- CELLENT IDEA
Most interesting and factual…thank you
Great content man. Really love your videos

Very good job we learn everyday something thaks a lot for your time God bless you
Glad it was helpful!
I learned something of value here. Thanks for posting.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks, buddy, you solved my problem.
Glad it was helpful
Definitely an easier method for cleaning the catalytic converter than removing it. Great video Brother and blessings for sharing
Thank you so much for this clip. God Bless you.
You are very welcome, god bless u too
I had a PO420 bank one code. I went ahead and replaced my cat and two sensors after not being convinced anything can clean them after a lot of research. . This may work but It would be a mess for me to take my upper sensor off. The man at Midas had 26 years experience. I let him do it. I ordered the OEM parts and had Midas install it. Cost about 1,500 dollars parts and labor total. What I didn't; expect is it greatly improved my gas mileage. It went from 17 to 23-24 mi a gal. I double checked it.
I used your method but in different ways and it worked
That's great
In what ways did you do it?
good job, thanks!
Nice video and great comments i see here - thanks to AliMech and the commenters
Thanks for coming
I really love the way you put things a cross
Thanks brother
Super, amazing 👍🛠️🎉
Thanksb
Helped me pass smog check. The carpet cleaner I used was the one from rug doctor. It was like $8 for the bottle.
Did the light come back on?
So he did say Carpet Cleaner! I thought I misheard him!
I actually have 1/2 a bottle of Carpet cleaner by Rug Doctor that says OXY on it...
@@MikeKollin I thought he said carpet cleaner too. But then in comments someone mentioned carb cleaner.
I hope he will clarify.
If carpet cleaner, and carb cleaner, and laquer thinner, and cataclean and dish soap does the job, I'm starting to think that almost Anything will do the job. I think I heard of other things too, just can't think of them now.
Carb cleaner does NOT mix with water. I am pretty sure he used carpet cleaner.
Seafoam or catalytic converter cleaner mix with water or just spray inside without water 💧 ?
Thank you Alimech!
Our pleasure!
Thank you for the informative video.God bless
Glad it was helpful!
That was amazing
Thanks
That was great job you have done well done and thanks for uploading this video
Glad you enjoyed it
Tq. ill do as you u did sooner on my car. toyota mark x 250G (2006). hope i dont end up spoil the car.
Amazing thanks for show UA-cam smile 😃....
My pleasure
👍Thank you so much for the times and efforts you have spent to make these wonderful videos. I subscribed to your channel 👍.
Thank you very much!
Thank you!
🙏🙏
gracias maestro
Great video.
Thanks for watching
great video man, i see lots of people commenting and writing that the temp needs to be risen whatever degrees blah blah blah... fuel additives blah blah blah.... this method seems the best hypothetically because fuel additives will just burn up by the time they reach the cat... lol .. these big businesses and people that benefit from them will keep leading the blind to their demise..great video man
Thanks man, of course so many ppl won't believe that this will work, bc they spend so much money before including me for cleaning catalytic and fuel injectors, appreciate your support
Does your exhaustpipe blow bubbles after this ?
Thanks! Great video!
Glad you liked it!
Thanks dude
wow complete tool 😊
Thanks
Was just thinking about doing something similar, thanks!
No problem!
Thanks
Great vid
Thanks for watching
Good job
Thanks
Thank you
You're welcome
👍🏼👍🏽👍🏼👍🏽👍🏼👍🏽
Good job bro
Thanks 👍
Nice
🤔 sarebbe interessante un test sui fumi di scarico prima e dopo la pulizia 😊
wow so cool 👍👍
Thank you
You want to reverse flush. Too much exhaust pressure can blow seals and gaskets on the engine. Taking the converter off and using a dishwasher tablet in a bucket of hot water overnight is enough. Reverse flush with water quite well, dry it out on a hot day or with a hair dryer, reinstall and you're done.
THE HECK SERIOUSLY!? Damn near $3k for that!? That’s insane. See I learned how to change a tire, breaks, do the oil, change the fuse under the hood, and the filter. The one in the glove box. Took some digging but hey! However, I need to learn how to do this.
Or just cut it off, stick on a straight pipe lol
The real issue is: you cannot simply REMOVE a catalytic converter or put it back easily. It's welded!!
This method is good. You don’t need to remove the catalytic or dry it. The heat from the exhaust will dry it completely.
@@abdulhassan1107 or the oxygen sensors are tied to it
That’s a very nice spray machine you have there.
It sure is!
Nice
Is possible to do this for a dpf also?
Have you tried?
can this be done using something different than your pressure can and het same results?
can I use product catalytic cleaner through the oxygen sensor hole which is usually through the brake booster( like mouly or gst52 catalytic brands)
Great presentation and explanations. Thank you. I was thinking of doing the same thing but using a solvent like carb cleaner or engine starting fluid. Do you think that can work too? Thank you
Yes, I used carb cleaner for cleaning intake valve and the o2 sensor ua-cam.com/video/wKOiFaNnFvU/v-deo.html , it will definitely clean it too
Try 1gal of Lacquer thinner in per 10 gal of gas. Drive highway about 70mph for a couple of hours.
@@johnd.8224Laquer thinner is trash! It damn near tore up my fuel pump. Smh
Thanku 🙏🙏🙏
I have a 2000 honda civic ex. It has that saying low efficient catalytic converter. Can I use the same steps to clean my catalytic converter?
where did you get that pressure set from lol nice handy bit of kit
great video no BS. But carpet cleaner ??. I personally clean the manifold thread with a thread chaser and use anti seize grease. for next time.
Great vids
thanks
Awesome
Thanks
Thanks for your video, I think you can use an industrial degreaser I used to clean a clogged DPF and it worked. Can you please mention the tools names and where they are sold.
Thank you

I have 3 cats and it's throwing code 430 for the first one. Would the liquid be able to go through all three and then to the exhaust?
Test by installing pressure gauge in O2 sensor before and after cleaning.
great idea!
Do you know what back pressure is expected in a normal car? (For selecting the right range gauge)
Hi, You have equipments and lot of space to work on this car, every one hasnt same car who can do their job in 5 minutes.
I don't have that easy I got a 2005 corvette and its not that easy to get to my 02 sensors
1 Question ? Where did you learn all this
knowledge 😍
و تبارک الله احسن الخالقین 😇 + 🕯 ❤ 💜 👀
Im mechanical Engineer and i used to work in car industry as well
Other videos recommended removing Cat, but on my Ford Transit Connect, removing Cat is a major job. I think I will try your method. Thanks for the tip👍 😎
Did it work?
Did it work? I want to try this on my Ford f150 1994
@@Richardv24 overall, no it did not! The “check engine” light did turn off for less than an hour
(my total drive time) but came on again. The exhaust smell never changed. Meaning it was still “below catalyst threshold”
which is the original code that brought the check engine light on. I ended up replacing the
Catalytic Converter.
@@michaelhernandez-uu1bzshould have used hydrofluoric acid. Dawn dish soap isn't enough.
Gonna use citric acid and oxalic acid next week as a 2nd opinion. Car runs alot better. Also used a garden sprayer. You don't need his tool.
@@Acanofalconpunch Thanks for that tip!
What exactly is the canister you used called to put the water and carpet shampoo cleaner in
Is it possible to use a spray for Yoki Molly on a sensitive area or a substance and the method will work? I only have the spray or what type of substance is in the video?
Do you feel that the gasoline additive that claims to clean the CAT will work? The one I'm looking at is "Boost Up" by Aloonso
Spraying down brake or carb cleaner also works
How are your catalytic converters doing now , after using brake cleaner? Still good after one year? I will try too
Thank you Thank you thank you God bless you
Some mechanics i can't trust why didn't they say that to me 72 years old a catalytic converter is to expensive
Why didn't they suggest that in the first place
A mechanic will never recommend cleaning a catalytic converter. It not a standard practice. This is strictly DIY only. Also, if it's already clogged or damaged, the only solution is replacement.
would the pressurized soapy solution work its way through an open exhaust valve and wash all the oil off or hydrolock a cylinder?
No, it would drain down the exhaust pipe.
What a purring soap is? A link to, please.🙂
Is this a good idea, if you replace or remove the o2 sensor then use a 1 gallon sprayer with carpet soap & water
obviously not
Basically that is what he did, so yes
i cant remove oxygen sensor ,its stuck ,do you recomend continue and keep trying?
Very useful , I ask that how much price of cleaning kit, also please mention the maker name of that kit
Thanks, the kit link in the description box, with the price
What is the set up youre using to clean it interested in buying the parts to throw that together
He has that in the description
but you should put some copper anti seize on the threads so next time you can take it out easily
veryyyyyyyyyy true , he'll be sorry 3 years later. :D
Make sure, whatever antiseize you use, make sure it is "sensor safe" so you dont wreck your O2 sensors.
Did you leave the "Downstream" O2 sensor in while cleaning? Did it matter if the O2 sensors got wet? You didn't wait for the Cat Con to dry out. Does it matter?
Yeah, he probably ruined the downstreams, unless it's oxygen sensor safe, but honestly I would not do what is doing.
@@datmanz5890 Why wouldn't you? What risk is there?
Hi, did you get any solution to this puzzling question?
Guys, I have a 2010 Nissan Sentra with over 220,000 miles on it. During the last 13 years, I have gotten catalytic underperforming codes 3 times. This is how I deal with them. With the engine cold, I pour Dawn detergent down a garden house. I then stick the hose as far as it will go into the tailpipe. I then seal, as much as possible, the tailpipe and garden house with plastic bags. I then turn on the house and fill the exhaust system with water and Dawn, making sure that the water does not reach the exhaust manifold but gets past the catalytic converter. I then let the soapy water sit in the exhaust system for 10 minutes. If the water has drained out via the tailpipe or leak in the exhaust system, I again add water until is is just past the catalytic converter and I immediately start the engine. The engine's exhaust will forcefully blow the soapy water out of the exhaust system and clean the catalytic converter. Let the engine run for 20 minutes, or go for a ride, and that's it, problem solved.
and rust out the exhaust and muffler from the inside
@@nickgc1234 no, it all evaporates when you run the engine. By the way, when you start your engine every morning, you will see water dripping out of the exhaust because moisture inside the exhaust is normal
huh?..." , making sure that the water does not reach the exhaust manifold but gets past the catalytic converter."....just how do you know when to stop ???
@@TheWilferch you can easily estimate it. If you are really worried about it, remove the O2 sensor and out the soap abs water through the hole where the O2 sensor screws into.
@@JR-kk6ce At over 509 degrees all water will vaporize. An engine runs at very high temperature
Thanks for the video. It was better to do it on an older vehicle to see the difference
Hello, I find your videos very successful. I have an Opel astra j 1.6 cdti 136 hp horse car. My question is, where can I find the torgue pro dpf verified pid. Is there a link. Pid can you write me. If we pour hydrochloric acid (HCL) on the dpf on the vehicle, will it damage the DPF? Thank you very much for your reply.
Que químico mezclas con agua para luego introducir al catalizador ?
Mezclé limpiador de alfombras con agua
Carb cleaner, injector cleaner and brake cleaner are flammable. Cat will heat up over 500 degree. Will it be no issue to run after clean?
Put it back when its dry.
Any others method to clean cat since I don't have the Autool Kit and get the same results?
Does this work on 2016 Jeep Patriot ?
Great video as always. I'd like to see go good the Liqui molly catalytic cleaner is for its price? 🤨
Thanks for watching, I think it's $6
Spraying cat cleaner in and let it soaked for a while , then connect city water to flush dirt out.
Hello, can a catalytic converter cleaner be applied the same way? From the upstream o2 sensor?
Yes, you can use same way
What do you think about using oxycat by pouring it to gas tank? Can it do the cleaning as well?
If the problem has just begun and is minor then yes, a fuel additive can clear the problem. If that ends up working for you I would suggest you only use a top tier fuel in your vehicle from that point forward. If you are in the U.S. the best choices are either Chevron or Shell gasolines.
👍🏼
🙏
What liquid do they put in them?
Just for your information, WD-40 is not a lubricant it is a solvent. And can cause problems when it dries. It was designed as a water displacement formula hence the WD.
Yep...Its not often you're wrong ?...But you're right this time.....lol.
Pb blaster or kroil are the best penetrant
Hater
WD 40 is absolutely
worthless. It's catchy name has fooled the masses for decades.
Please send us your video!!😮
Do same video on 13 F150 V6 Ecoboost 3.5 Liter... Thanks
Easy when o2 sensor is on top & not underneath!
Agreed, but still possible

Where do you get the setup for the cleaner liquid, love your videos.

Hi.
If I spray carburetor cleaner directly from top in start engine, do u have any idea, what may happen. Will it also clean catalytic converter..
Don't do that. Don't put anything flammable inside the cats.
How can I get some of the sprayer
The vw jetta didn't start after I put this in the O2 sensor hole. What does that mean? Did It go into the engine?
