Installing my new Combustor.

[BrianN]

This may seem like a dumb question, but, better to ask and make sure.
I received my new CAT last week and am planning on installing it this weekend.
Now, my question is, is there anything that I have to do either before or after to "break it in"?
Or, do I just remove the old CAT, throw the new one and light 'er up?
Thank you,

I'm just going to bump this so it makes it to the list, there are guys on here that know a lot about those, and I'm not one of them.

Nothing for break in, just make sure you use a gasket around it and while your at it check your door seal for leaks.

Thank you Dieselhead. I will be checking all seals and doing a full clean before the cold really hits here.

If it's a tight fit, tape the gasket onto the cat with some masking tape. Makes it easy to put in, and the masking tape will burn off.

It came with the gasket taped to it. Fit in perfectly.
