My 2000 CSVT (110,000 miles) was in the shop the other day to get allignment and tires balanced. I paid for the shop to do i diagnostic on the engine to figuere out why I've been gettin piss poor gas millage (around 20 mpg sometimes worse), and why it just doesnt seem to be running strong. He said the most likely cause was that the cat was clogged. Does this sound right? I had a CEL code for the cat a few months ago but it went away. Also, is this why people "gut" the cat? Would gutting it help my problem? If so, how is it done, and what exactly does "gutting" do?
