Thanks for your help here. To quote my other post today about my cylinder-3 misfire problem,
"...Complicating this all is the presence of two respectable exhaust pipe holes, one just behind the catalytic converter, and one just before the rear muffler. Muffler and Resonator are in good shape. Car is starting to sound like a small truck."
Of course Sears wants to replace everything from the Cat back, at a cost of about $499! This is a 200,000 mile 1999 Altima that hasn't had exhaust work before. Could small sections of pipe be welded at the offending spots, or could something be ""wrapped" around the offending spots? I just need to get two more years out of this car. I've been running Moblie-1 synthetic oil, so I hope the engine will hold out... thanks!
