I am surprised at how many people don't have a vacuum test gauge in there tool box.
A very basic tool that can tell you many things about your engines condition.
Blue, could you please provide more details on how do you test a restricted cat using a vacuum gauge?

I bot a digital manometer (JFP's suggestion) to check the vacuum on the block and curious how you use it to check a congested cat.. thanks!
