P0420 code.

My CEL, just came on I checked it with the interceptor, says P0420: Cat Converter Efficency, I just switched over to 91 octane from 87.. not sure if that will have anything to do with it.

Also, ive had a problem with the second sensor before bare wire grounding out. Fixed that.

Got new pacesetter header, hi-flow cat, full exhaust and have not had a problem for about.. 2-3 months I belive.. Any ideas?

I guess my 02 sensors could be going.. just wanted to make sure it was not a 87 t 91 problem..

Going to try to clear it with the interceptor and see if it comes back... any help would be appreciated.

This is for the O2 sensor after the cat (or after where it should be)... the other one sets your A/F, and you don't want to run lean.
