SOURCE: 1998 grand am 2.4 liter, engine code po420 (twc

What this means is that the three way catalytic converter is not doing it`s job and it needs to be replaced.First check the exhaust system and make sure it is not bent or has holes.If it`s good then make sure the rear o2 sensor is working properly.If that`s good the you will have to replace the cat.converter.Good luck.

Testimonial: "that was an amazingly fast...I'm going to have my brother check that out this week...thank you so very much. "

PO420 &PO430 are Converters Below Efficiency
