Can anyone help please? I have a 96 GT and the check engine light is on. I have taken the car to a dealer and was told that the cats are plugged. I do not believe that is true as there is exhaust coming out of both pipes. Any suggestions on how to fix this? The previous owner has installed an aftermarket exhaust (SuperTurbo??) and the dealer says that there should still be four cats but my car only has two. I am concerned about his because the dealer says that the car will lose about 20HP at the rear wheel when the check engine lite is on. Can i get it to go off by buying a MIL Eliminator and if so where can I buy one. Also, how does one go about resetting the computer in my car? Anyone know what to do?
