I'm thinking cats but I dunno... My fathers a power plant manager so I'm sure I could get my hands on one. He's only about a three hour drive though lol. I pulled all the coils and cleaned with dielectric grease when I did the intake.
Why would the sensors be a culprit?

Long day off. Time to go get some bearings, seals, bushings, ball joints and tie rod ends.

Month and a half later I finally got my heat exchanger. With the factory mount included for $65 shipped I can't complain though!
