Hello All:
Directly following a head gasket failure and the dumping of all of the water from the cooling system,the accompanying Catalytic convertor on that side of the Exhaust system (V8) began buzzing and clanking like a bucket full of pebbles. Turns peoples heads it does :-(
The CAT still works fine, it's just got loose insides.
Apparently to replace it you need to buy a complete pair of left and right down-pipes (with Cats) at an horrendous cost.
Tried a few whacks with a rubber mallet to see if the loose/buzzing part would "JAM" in place, but no joy.
Any suggestions as to a "fix" for this noisy-nuisance problem?
Many thanks in advance.
Regards,
Dan.
