what? if any part of the Cat goes its knackered - the insde of a catalyst is a fine ceramic honeycomb mesh covered in an alloy of precious metals - these form the gas catalyst of the system converting into less harmful gasses

If u get 1/4 cup of petrol in your cat - u'll ruin your substrate and it'll crumble and come out of your exhaust as black particles - so tehrefore ur possibly overfuelling
