Hello everyone. I recently (well 6 mos ago) bought a used '08 taco that was in dire need of a LOT of TLC. Replaced the evap core, heater core, tensioner pulley, power steering pump, and alternator. Finally the engine is running quietly. LOL But now have the dreaded 0420 and 0430 engine codes. One thing I did learn, never buy a truck from a farmer! LOL

Thanks everyone. Can anyone tell me the max temp differential on a cat? I am seeing 500F and what I've read it should be 100F or less. Anyone ever try to clean them? Thanks.
