Well such a **** storm this past couple days. My 5 year old battery decided its time to quit. I charged it up with my garage charger and it wouldn't hold a charge over night. I had to start the jeep with some gas which slowly unearthed a new problem!! Now I have loss of power when putting the engine under any load. Going up a hill? No problem max speed is 30mph! Well this problem is all too common for me because it happened before. Tomorrow I plan on dropping the downpipe and cutting open the last mini cat and cleaning that sucker dry. At the same time im going to cut off the bigger cat near the tranny and put in a straight pipe. I knew my jeep was acting weird lately when I tried to pick up speed on the highway. I guess since I used so much gas to start the jeep up a couple times it managed to finally let the last mini cat loose and clog it up. Long day ahead of me tomorrow

Spent a good 5 hours today working on the jeep. Turns out I was right that the mini cat had broken up and blocked the hole. I now have two empty mini cats and no more "big" cat as I chopped that off and replaced it with a straight pipe. The "big" cat was also half clogged from the bits of the other two mini cats so that had to go. Now a new problem! Yay! The jeep is TOOOOOO loud. I actual like the tone, kinda sounds like a old muscle car. The only problem is it is TOOO loud, actually it is scary loud. SOOOO now I have to wait for my magnaflow muffler, flowmaster high flow cat, and a O2 sensor fouler so I can put the jeep back on the street. Currently Im too scared to drive on the street without a muffler because of how loud it is...
