Hi all has anyone heard of cat cleaner? I first heard of this yesterday and the info I got was that it cleans the injectors and de cokes the inside of the engine thus for improving throttle response and a smoother running engine?? Any ideas guys or is this complete poo

Cataclean does make some bold statements about cleaning lambdas, injectors and cats but I have no idea if it works.

A quick google says it is actually a scam.

To be fair the best way to clean a cat is put some super unleaded in and give it a long hard drive.

Hence my post. They self-clean if they get hot enough and the only way you'll get it nice and hot is by driving it Wink
