In need of your wisdom yet again.

 

I am in the middle of fitting some downpipes and cats for my zed and can't get the stupid heat sensors off. I have tried the blowtorch, WD40, mole grips, the lot! I can only use the grips now anyway as there is not much to get hold of now in the way of a spanner :headvswal

 

Have you guys got any tips?

 

Would it be possibel to snip them and then try and get them out off the car then going em up with connectors and some heatshrink afterwards?

 

Justin:)

Just cut them. On my 1990 car they just light up the cat lamp on the dash if unburnt fuel's getting into the cats and nothing else.

 

I did away with them no probs.

Cheers Ben,

 

I take it I won't fail my MOT if these are cut?

I just cut them and plugged up the holes.

 

It'll pass the MOT no probs, they're nothing to do with the emissions.

Hi Justin, are you still having probs with them heat sensors, just cut the little buggers off, and as ben said get a bolt and plug them off.

Have you removed all the other bits we were talking about ;-)

Hey Baz,

 

Its all done mate bar finding a couple of big bolts to plug off the sensors and fitting the heat shields.

 

I have snipped the sensors and will have a go at removing them out of my old cats now they are off the car. I will then use connectors to get the sensors working again. Now am I a genius or what:D

 

Cheers again for giving me your cats and downpipes, your a star:)
