Catalytic Converter warning

[Daniel Adams <doasc@yahoo.com>]

About 3 weeks ago, I brought my 93 90CS in for the fuel injector
recall.  At the same time I had them check out the cat-converter, which
had just started rattling.  The driver's side cat was diagnosed and the
part ordered.  I got my car back Thursday evening, planning to use it
for a weekend trip.  On my way home Friday (the next day), I noticed
the car was losing power.  Pressing on the accelerator felt numb, like
the time a fuel injector failed (under warranty @40K miles).  I
original feared that they had screwed up the fuel injector recall.  I
had to get it towed to the dealer and they determined that the material
in the cat had come free and clogged it.  I was lucky in that the part
had already been ordered the day before.  It was repaired on Monday, so
a 3-business days wait, unless your dealer stocks the part.

I guess my point is that if you hear any signs of your cat rattling. 
Get it fixed sooner than later.  

regards,
Daniel
