Re: P420 Code

po420 im almost sure is a catylist code

could be 02 sensors catalytic converters or ecu issue relating to the catylists

if its running like **** i would guess a clogged cat...i dont thing the o2 would cause it to run bad...

i know po420 is catylist code for nissan on the cunsult computer...and i pretty sure codes are universal to all makes.....but ive been wrong before...guess i could be again...lol

Re: P420 Code

yeah it's a cat code, but the car only runs like crap everyonce in a while not all the time and i did a search on this board and no one ever mentioned of performance of there car going down because of the code so im not sure if theres something im missing... the car has 80k on the clock..
