Too much fuel will overload the catalythic converter and it will melt down. With modern cars that have two catalythic convertes, the first one close to the engine, this will result in the melted core if the first catalythic converter plugging the second catalythic converter with pathetic performance as a result. If you didn't turn of the engine quickly enough when the DI failed then the probability of a melted catalythic converter is high. -- G–ran Larsson http://www.nospam.com/saab/
