If it’s an non oem replacement cat - i.e a generic muffler shop replacement, in my experience these are only really good for 1-2 smog tests at the most.

Yes, it will have stampings, maybe a TEQ if I remember right. A new cat would obviously bring your HC and C0 numbers down but I wouldn’t start throwing parts at it just yet.
Even though you failed on the second try, I gotta say you’re doing well overall. Passes visual, EGR is working (low nox), and your air injection seems to be working (residual O2 is present on the report). You’re just a little rich.

Congratulations on the new truck! My 
kinda freaked when she couldn’t get into my shop cause
of my ‘new’ 1969 Mustang. That was a few years ago, but she is a confirmed RAV4 fan so good enough for me. She can’t get into the 60 without a step so she won’t.
That truck takes me back to my FJ40 and the list of regrets from modifying it.

Having 2 FJ60s - I am thinking what have I done! HAH
This blue one - will remain all stock I am sure - as that is how she likes it and enjoys it.
I was thinking of some nicer tires for it (like my sand one has) but not sure Iwant to mess with it yet.
The DA/Heet will lean it out. I agree that there’s no call to start buying stuff yet.
Do you have the 2F emissions manual yet? It’s headache-inducing at first but you will make sense of it eventually. One important feature is that it shows you how to test all of the different components, which is a free way to troubleshoot.
Search for user @gregnash - he has (or at least had) download links for the emissions manual, FSM, etc in his sig line. The links may not appear if you’re on the mobile site.

I was being a wannabe hipster in the Blue Land Cruiser, driving around, with my Starbucks in the cupholder enjoying the day.
As I neared my house, a neighbor waved me down. I had seen them before, as we sometimes walk by their house, but never formally met them.
He was 83 years old, and wanted to talk about the Land Cruiser. I didn’t think much of it, as I was just stopped at the gas station 45 minutes ago, with someone asking if I want to sell the Land Cruiser.
Well he invited me to his driveway, he had 2 land Cruisers. He wanted to talk about it. Then his wife came out.
His wife is a high school teacher, they are long retired.
After a 45 minute conversation, not only did I make a new friend, they gave me presents for my kids for X mas, and he presented me with a book he wrote.
Gentleman was the coach for Indonesian Athletes for 1964 Olympics. He was a professor of University of Sriwidjaja, and a Peace Corp Volunteer, who got to meet Kennedy on multiple occasions.
Talk about a cool outing!!!!!

That is a beautiful truck. It reminds me of a scripture in the Bible..."Thou shalt not covet thy neighbors Land Cruiser."

I said that everytime I walk away from the driveway, and out of my terrible shape sand colored 85 60....when I look at her beautiful one
I don't see a project...I see a creampuff. Beautiful 60. Love that your wife wanted one (my wife's getting hers in a few months!).
