Hi forumers,
I just while driving my mazda es 1.8 2000 got check engine light,went to autozone to read the code and its PO420.
i looked at mazda workshop manual and they don't have 420 code only 421 which is warm-up catalyst system efficiency below threshold.
I don't know where to start. I can visually check exhaust system for leakage ,but i don't know how one would check catalyst converter is it in good condition.
Im not even sure what is a Bank1 and where is located.
I just pass my emission test two weeks ago.
Can i drive my car like this,what is the downswing of driving it in that condition.
If anyone know anything about this pls let me know.
I got it fixed it was O2 sensor all along ,
