Default Just pulled CEL #67 from my wife's accord

This code is : 67 Catalyst System Efficiency System below threshold, bad catalytic converter

Any hints as to what to try besides getting a new cat? Could it be the 2nd O2 sensor?

Most likely a bad cat if there is no o2 sensor code with it.

any suggestions on where to get a cheap replacement? Don't need high flow or anything like that.

Thanks

It may be covered under warranty depending on year and mileage.

unfortunately, it's not under warranty anymore. It's a 98 with too many miles and we didn't get extended coverage.

I have no problem swapping it out myself, just want to find a good deal on one.

Check your warranty book. Certain 'emmissions equipment' is covered much longer than the normal warranty.
8 yr / 80k miles???

Yea, I forgot to mention that. The cat should be covered 8 or 80.

The best price I've found so far is ~ $150 for a replacement
