AzSTMPR Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 Sorry for bringing back an old thread. I just got the 0420 on my 02RS. Anyone here personally use the L shape non fouler and were able to get rid of the code long enough to pass an inspection. Its rough out in NYC as traffic *********************s are everywhere! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 Anyone here personally use the L shape non fouler and were able to get rid of the code long enough to pass an inspection.if it works - it's not just long enough to pass inspection, it is a long term and excellent solution to a silly issue. yes, folks use the L shape ones. if inspection is an issue i almost wonder if you'd rather have the straight spacers though for a more stock look? i don't know if that matters or not, my state doesn't check emissions.

Nbe1210 Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 I used the straight "help" brand non fouler since I could pick it up at the local auto parts store. Like it said before, I don't know if it will fit in the space you need it so look closely before you order. Maybe make a little cardboard piece and hold it in the spot. Remember the plug sticks out a few inches beyond the end of the L also. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AzSTMPR Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Thanks guys I'll place a order for it today. As long as it takes care of the 0420 code then I can finally pass inspection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThosL Posted September 23 Share Posted September 23 A question on this remedy for the O2 downstream anti-foul; the ones I got on Amazon are probably 1/4" opening, do these need to be larger, drilled out? Also does the upstream O2 sensor also need one of these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmdew Posted September 24 Share Posted September 24 Usually just for the downstream sensor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThosL Posted September 26 Share Posted September 26 It seemed to help. At first the CEL was flashing; next trip none of that and runs better without sputtering. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThosL Posted November 4 Share Posted November 4 I got the spacer online and drilled it out with a drill I picked up at Lowe's, a pita but helped. Thanks for the recommendation it should help others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
