    P0430 - bad cat converter efficiency - what to do?

    If this code hadn't come up just after having driven home with a misfiring cylinder, then I would suspect anything BUT the cat. But since I did that, I'm pretty sure it's the cat. Unless the misfire could have somehow damaged a sensor?

    P0430 - bad cat converter efficiency - what to do?

    2006 V6 with 300K+ miles on it (original owner). My CEL came on the other day, but I was almost home, and for reasons I won't go into getting a tow would have been a huge problem at that time, so, knowing the risks, I drove home. The code was for a misfire on #6, so I replaced the ignition coil...

    HELP - How to get gas FROM 4runner?

    OK, I'm snowed in, and even with chains on I can't get my 2006 4runner out to the plowed road. The electricity is out, and I have a limited amount of gasoline for the generator. Fortunately, I filled up the tank on the 4runner before the storm hit, assuming I'd be able to siphon gas to run the...
