A good idea is to take your scan tool and connect it to all your vehicles when they are running perfectly and then record all the normal waveforms and values and then save them. Then if you have a problem down the road you can compare the current abnormal waveforms and readings with the normal ones from before. This will often make a problem obvious during troubleshooting. I have a full set of normal readings and graphs recorded for all my vehicles to compare with if a problem ever comes up.

I believe the reason #5 misfires is because it fires right after #6, the rest of the cylinders on bank 2 fire after bank 1 giving time for the pressure to drop in #2 manifold. The best method I've found for finding/confirming a clogged cat is temperature. The outlet on a working cat should be hotter than the inlet, if it's clogged it'll be colder. A quick scan with an IR gun will tell the story.

That's crazy. At 71,000 miles. I have the exact same 5.4 3V engine at 348,000 miles, and it runs like a top. Only ever changed the starter, and both VCT solenoids because that seemed like the flavor of the day, so I did it. Yesterday I replaced all SP515 spark plugs to the new SP 546, and I cleaned the throttle body completely. Runs like my wife's Ford 2.7 Ecoboost. I'd put a straight pipe in place of the catalytic converter and be done with it.

Been a fan going on 3 years now. I had a misfire on the number 5 and Change the plug, coil and still had an issue at that cylinder. So I get on the freeway and couldn't get over 40 miles an hour going up hill. It did increase going down here. I kept an eye on the RPM and it had me thinking something was wrong with the trans. I had never had problem with it. I got a new engine put in and had them service the trans. So since I did a crappy job, and lied about the service they was going to give me on the engine, I was thinking another thing they beat me out of my money on. So I start watching your video one after another. They shop said it was my intake. I was like it runs and sounds great at low speed. So I did not listen to him. So when I first got the truck 6 years ago. I used to get cat lights on it. But when I drive from Minnesota to Mississippi that check engine light never comes on. But this time it end up being the cat. Another shop told me that changing the cat will not solve my problem. I made a bet with him. He didn't go for it. I am happy to say that my baby running excellent right now with the CAT change Thanks to you sir. You are the best sir. My baby got up to 115 yesterday. Now to get rid of this and never buy another Ford unless it have a 351 in it. Never every had a problem with my Bronco. Should have kept it. Traded it in for this truck.

I have an 2006 Expedition, EB package, 127k miles. Been having some issues lately and this explanation has helped me understand more. Two weeks ago Autozone read a code that Bank 1 sensor 1 was rich, replaced sensor drove interstate and ran good. Parked for 1 1/2 days and CEL came on again, This time it was reading bank 1 sensor 1 rich and bank 2 sensor 1 lean. I will be looking at it tonight with a mechanic friend. I'm also thinking vacuum lines or MAF. The last two winters have been cold and a field mouse has built nest behind MAF a few times. One vacuum line replaced last year. Another appears to be dry rotting, Replacing vacuum line tonight.

Very good info. It backs up my techs diagnosis. I have a 2008 f250. Bought used from private owner. One concern of mine is why would my gas gauge fluctuate? From a full tank in drops to half in less than 50 miles. Then fills up on 9 gallons. It’s a 30 gallon tank. Do I need a new fuel pump also? Do I replace both catalytic converters even tho one is the problem?

Interesting! I'm getting the P0430 code being thrown, of which I've deleted, so no more 'check engine light' but when I scan it again, it's still showing the same code (just no check engine light). My fuel mileage hasn't been a concern, and my power is still great, thus I'm thinking it may be the sensor being faulty. I've not tried the 'tapping the bottom of the cat', so will try that when the rains stop, but as mentioned the truck still has great power and runs smoothly as it always has!

The best way to evaluate cat efficiency is to look at the upstream and downstream waveforms and compare them. The upstream one should be varying and the downstream one should be relatively flat. Comparing the two waveforms is essentially how the PCM continuously tests the cats and decides whether to generate a trouble code and turn on the check engine light.

It has to do with the amount of flow thru the engine. If the exhaust is restricted due to the cat being plugged, it affects the ability of the engine to move intake air. The maf constantly monitors this and uses the data to extrapolate fuel mixtures. If it can't breathe right, it won't run right. It is akin to being in a high altitude area with thinner air, like driving in the mountains with a naturally aspirated( non turbo or supercharged) engine. More throttle input required to get any power.

Could a dirty MAF cause low BARO readings too? It could also give you lean codes without throwing a MAF code. The tell tale sign in this case was the long term fuel trims showing lean on both banks but worse on one than the other, pointing only towards a plugged converter. Not much else it could be on this design. Thanks for video.

I Love your videos, I have become a lot more educated on my 5.4 nightmare if only I would have watched your videos before we bought a 2007 and put a Jasper rebuild in her. But I did not, and here we are. On that note, could this cat issue, if left untreated, cause a brand new exhaust manifold gaske,t with about 1500 interstate miles, to go bad (The studs and gaskets were obliviously replaced but not the manifolds as the local mechanic said there was no way for him to tell if they were bad or not (Warped). Unfortunately I took him at his word for a lot of this stuff and it cost us almost 10500 for the engine replacement alone (I really failed at researching this motor, I had a lot of other things going on at the time and just had in my mind (foolishly) that it was a Ford engine so how bad could it be? The engine that was in the truck seemed to be the factory engine and the truck only had 97xxx miles. We knew when we bought it that the engine was shot and thus got the truck for for a great deal. Thank God everything else was in great condition! I'm wondering if the engine being blown, could have caused something to be forced into the exhaust and thus clogging the cats up. (The truck also sat for what appears to be about 2 years. So with all of that in mind my 2 questions are: 1. Could a clogged Cat cause the exhaust manifold gasket to blow (not certain that is the cause of our ticking as the ticking sound itself never goes fully away weather engine is warm or at start.) 2. Would applying 100% throttle in this condition (the clogged Cat) cause the motor (computer) to go into any kind of limp mode?

Yes a severely clogged cat could cause a graphite gaskets to blow out but not an MLS gasket.

You need to fix this pronto before you burn up the new cats. Be sure to check the coil pack. On many Fords they crack underneath and will cause misfires under load. Of course it could also be the wires and/or plugs.

I just ordered some hi-flow (200 cell) cats for my 08 F150, but the new cats do not have the O2 bung in them. Should I just install bungs just behind the cat in the regular 2.5" piping for the O2 sensors?

I've got a 2006 Ford Expedition Eddie Bauer with the 3v 5.4 Triton motor. I've replaced the plugs twice, the cam phasers, the oil pump, the coil packs in the 5 years I've had it. Recently I've began experiencing low power having to floor it and get it over 3500rpm to get it to get up to speed on an on ramp or to pass a slow moving vehicle. I ran the crap out of it for about 15 minutes using over a 1/4 tank of gas and stopped looked underneath and both cats were glowing orange, and when you run it with the windows down you can hear pre detonation and what sounds like a bad exhaust leak. I parked it and just waiting on some time to pull the manifolds and y pipe and weld in some test pipes in place of the cats to eliminate the problem. Can I disable the post cat 02's so the CEL doesn't stay on all the time? This is the first Ford I've done extensive work on, I've done 5 LSx style motors, and back in the early 2000's installing headers and eliminating the downstream O2 using HP tuners.

Another great video that's easy to follow! Thank you! Also, is there anything you recommend to help keep the catalytic converters clean for the life of the vehicle? Clean oil, fuel system cleaner, avoid too many short trips, anything else?

Prevent oil consumption, adding a catchcan to keep crankcase vapors that contain engine oil from being burned and sent through the exhaust, avoid running lean as that can make them melt down.

My 11 ecoboost f150 popped the 430. Dealer is replacing the bank 2 cat and re flashing the pcm. They gave no reason for the cat to fail, so in your best opinion, what causes the cats to fail and what can be done to remedy it so it does not happen for awhile?

I believe it's missing on 5 because it is the only cylinder that is next to each other in firing order on the same bank. The left bank is getting a double whammy of exhaust from those two cylinders which is leaving 5 with too much dilution from number six exhaust pulse.

I'm getting 29 inHg on my scantool, however, both bank 2 sensors are pretty much matching the bank 1 sensors. Some back story: I have a 2008 E250 5.4L and it's bogging under load. The only OBDII code I'm getting is P0446. I replaced the ignition coils and air filter. The spark plugs look fine. I've also cleaned the MAF sensor and throttle body. I'm thinking clogged cats but the baro reading seems accurate but the bank 2 sensors readings are all over the place. Thoughts? I'm also located in the Chicagoland area.
