I cleaned my cat with it and I gotta say he wasn’t too happy about it. He scratched the hell out of me. He seemed pretty clean afterward but he was hissing and scratching and biting like a damn honey badger the whole time. I can’t really give it a thumbs up because my thumb is mangled.

Thanks man, you just saved me over $1000… didnt think it would work, but cleared up my cats and i passed emissions! Was one day away from buying new cats for nothin!! This stuff really works

[jeffhackworth]

Thanks for the tip!!! I had a check engine light on for the CAT and I used stuff on my 2014 KIA Soul and YES it worked and I passed the emissions test here in NYS. I put it in when I had around a quarter of a tank, drove 20 miles then I filled up with high octane gas. I heard that the primo gas helps. The light was still on and I was trying to figure how to clear it and it cleared itself. I went to the inspection and BANG it passed! It saved me about $800!! It was a New York City miracle! (My Plan B involved Willie in the Bronx) THANKS!!!!

As a last ditch effort after watching your video, I went and bought the CATALYTIC at AutoZone, put it in with a half tank of gas, put my van into a lower gear and drove for 50 miles at 4K RPM all the way, after 70 miles there were no codes, I checked with my code reader and was only missing one EVAP, which for 2004 cars you are allowed to have one "missing" holding my breath I went and went and PASSED! I tried everything before, nothing could remedy the Catalytic Below Threshold P0430. I was getting 5 codes in a raw after resetting and only driving 30 miles! If I could I would give you a hug. Thank you! The Van has 240 000 miles on it I just could not bring myself to spending another $1800 to replace the

I been using this stuff for years...I started using this back when I worked as a mechanic! It certainly clean the cats. We had a Mercedes that had a cat the was clogged shut. Put that sweet nectar of the gods in the gas tank and started it up and rev'd the motor high into RPMs next thing we knew the Catalytic converter was glowing red from the heat of the stuff cleaning...We let it cool down and took the car out and low and behold drove like new. So much power you could really tell that it was clean open exhaust again! Nice video Doug, great explanation on how to use it and what it does! Keep the good content going man!! Also you have a killer beard, it better then the hair on my head!

Thank you so much. I failed emissions for the last 3 years and was going to get rid of my suv. I googled how to pass emissions and your video came up. I did what you said and passed the emissions today with zero codes. Thank you so

I have a 1999 Mazda protege with 210, 000 +/- miles and my check engine light had been on since i bought it over a year ago, up until last week, for the catalytic converter and if i had only known about this product back then i would've used it when i first got the vehicle.

Last week i bought a $39.99 scan tool from Walmart to check for any possible codes but only the cat kept coming up and i tried this product after watching a similar one and i did exactly what this man is saying and it has apparently worked. I waited until i had less than a quarter of a tank of fuel left and poured the whole bottle of CATACLEAN in there and drove the car like i stole it. Up and down the highway for 20 miles, even though the bottle calls for 10-15, only because my calculations to make it back to a gas station were slightly off. Once i was done with the 20 mile trip i filled it back up with regular fuel and deleted all codes to reset the check engine light and i'm now at over 130 miles since this process without the check engine light coming back on.

I was extremely doubtful about the effectiveness of this product in the beginning after reviewing different results from different people but it beats buying a new catalytic converter by far! and it worked for me so i highly recommend giving this thing a shot and praying for the best.

Hope this helps other people make up their mind about trying it out and hopefully saving them lots of $.

P.S. Thanks for the video brother!

Shorter the better thank you for getting to the point

Men here 2022, i just sow this after dealing with my Lincoln mkt smog check for over 200 miles driving it . THANK YOU SO MUCH !! ALL MY SMOG TEST LIGHTS WENT GREEN AND I JUST PAST THE SMOG TEST

[doublegolden]

Hello Sir, thank you for your tip. You saved me a lot of money! I have a 2005 TSX with 320k + mileage and my check engine is on because of my cat converter. Im due for registration and smog check and Im worried it will fail because of my cat converter. I shopped around and its very expensive bec of CARB. I came across your video and tried it but nothing happened. I was thinking maybe my cat c. is so clogged up that I need a second bottle. So I bought 2 bottles poured it with about 4 gallons left and drove the car for 40+ miles on the freeway. After that I filled it up with premium gas and drove for another 10 miles. Then my wife drove to work for about 60 miles and BOOM! CHECK ENGINE'S GONE! Highly recommend product. It really works! Thank you Sir!!! 👍👍👍

[jonnapatricia]

It’s a great and reliable video. Was facing this kinda issue back then with my emission test so I had to look for a way, which was how I came across Stray Admin who has got years in experience of helping lots of citizens pass they’re Smog test too.

[yoreljm]

Thanks for the video! Saved me $1000s. I used it per the directions on the bottle and it worked to get rid of my evap and O2 errors.

[jayawantdhumal]

Wow It worked for me 2013 town and country had 420 & 421 codes after pouring one bottle in about 4 gallons of premium fuel the check engine light went away in about 10 miles finished my drive cycle in about 100 miles and passed the emission thanks for the info saved almost 1000 every body was recommending a cat change

[stevebutler]

I've seen smog technicians fail people for a bad catalytic converter and tell people to go down and use that stuff and then come back in a week. if you overuse seafoam another fuel cleaners you can Gunk up your catalytic converter and drop your performance and actually mess it up

[audreym]

Cat Clean saved me 2years ago with an EVAP code. This year, while driving to blow it out, that evil light came on and the code came back as an O2 problem. 96 4runner, and I’m a clueless chick here desperate to get this sucker to pass! All I do is drive this thing and pray to clear it!!! Argggh

[originalsupermommy]

They were outta Cataclean at the store so I grabbed Dura Lube, and wowee it only took a 15-20 mile ride to feel the increase in throttle response. My son's Envoy was really feeling underpowered on hills, and the Google said that model is notorious for clogged cats. SUPER impressed! I'm not much of a magic potion user because I keep my personal vehicles maintained; but my son's ride certainly doesn't get much love, so I had to give her a drink of Dura Lube cat cleaner.

[gibsonbrigh]

It works, just run high test gas in your car. I ran none ethanol which i got a Stewart's. Ran the car for 30 miles. Came back cleared the code. And it passed inspection.

[jeremyolson]

Gonna try it due to P0420 code. My state got rid of vehicle inspections in the 80s though, thank God.

[madridgevara]

D&E in the Garage, I know that the product is not yours. But I just want to say. My 2007 Honda S2000 would just not pass the smog for the third time. But today I used the cataclean and drove for 32 minutes and it worked. Thank you guy for making this video.

[davidvoinier]

Doug, I used that stuff in my 2000 WJ 4.0 that had 250K miles on it and was using a lot of oil because of bad rings, got the cat code, and in one day it ran better and cleaned the cats enough to go thru inspection the second year!! That engine is now sitting on a pallet in my driveway, but the cats are on a second engine. This is a true story!
