RE: [DML] IT'S FINALLY RUNS

It is true that if you shake out the insides of the cat, the car will run 
fine. In addition, the converter will no longer heat up red hot.
Realize that in some places you must pass an emissions test to re-license 
the vehicle.
You can purchase a catalytic converter if necessary from several places 
including delorean motor co in houston at www.delorean.com. If you are 
running the car while partially plugged I suggest you be very careful about 
the heat it generates.
