    Overheated my engine on a cold snap day. Found my thermostat was broken replaced it. And the process I broke one of the plastic vacuum tubes that goes to the air pumps and runs underneath the air intake manifold. I took off the air intake manifold and replaced the vacuum tubes.
    Now I have a p420 any thoughts

    Exhaust leaks can also cause a P0420 code

    if you do have a bad catalytic converter there are products which can help clean them such as Cataclean, Scotty Kilmer has a few videos where he uses lacquer thinner
