Sometimes I'm slow, but it is finally sinking in. No flammable hydrocarbons. Now tending towards soapy water to get the oily film out of the primary cats, rather than just running the car and burning it out.
I saw some YouTube videos about cleaning old cats. People who were trying to fix failed cats didn't have good results. In this case, I assume they are still good, but coated with oil.
