I recently had the power steering pressure hose replaced on my truck (1985 FJ60/daily driver). Once I got it back, the truck was very sluggish/high rpms without much power. Prior to the new hose, the truck was very responsive to the gas. My mechanic now tells me I need to replace the catalytic converter before the carb can be properly adjusted.
Two questions: (1) does that sound like it could be the problem, and (2) if so, any problem with just getting a catalytic converter from Meineke (I'm told that would be around $250 vs. $1000 from the dealer)? Thanks in advance.
