oil filter is new its the second oil and filter change its had in 2 months and i have only driven about 50 kays on a permit,ive got 20w50 shell helix oil in it at the moment with a splitfire oil conditioner,its a genuine motorcraft filter and the oil is still clean but then it aint that old,so i'll try the inlet cleaning trick and see how it goes

Garsiph suggests replacing the oxy sensor and you don't mention it amongst the things you've done. After having a clogged cat it's probably a wise move, at least inspect it.

They dont test.
They will allways give a reading but the calibration will be way off.
They have only a 12 month life anyway.

About 60 to 90 Dollars they are. Well worth it in a few tanks of fuel.

to see if the cats blocked they run a lazer temp gauge to see if it heats up anywhere.

i cleaned my cat today actually. we'll just say the car runs a lot smoother and is now MUCH more fuel efficent

run the engine for a few days after u knocked the cat out.
if the cat was blocking the exhaust it could have caused massive back pressure and pushed oil through the pvc system into the cylinders.

would a build up of oil and gum in the inlet manifold do the same thing, fill cylinders with oil?
