I can't tell you how many times a customer pulled into the shop with a plastic bag stuck to the catalytic converter. This thread sounds familiar...

I referenced you in another post , I hope you saw it . Someone wanted to know what else to do while the engine was out and I know you usually have a " grocery list" .
Hope you don't mind.
