holding back could be a catalytic converter hex core turning 90 degrees ... this would then create someting similar to a hydro lock with exhaust gases causing a valve to warp or even worse ... split cat and centre box and shine a torch to check the orientation of the hex core (not sure the correct name). this was the cause of pete engine failiure and the car holding back was down to the core rotating 90 degrees. |
