'95 A6 - Catalytic converter - UPDATE

[Fay Kelley]

Thanks for all of the assistance .... my hubby was overwhelmed with
trying to get the exhaust off during a move, so he drilled a hole
just ahead of each cat and put a little elbow into the hole
to direct the air toward the back rather than sending dust
up into my open window.     The gas mileage improved immediately
and I don't smell gasoline anymore.   We'll take the next step
after we get settled.     Unless we find a place where we can
keep our horse we will be in an interim house for a while.
ThnX again ~
