Is what problem? If you have P017x codes for adaptation limits broken, the problem is not likely only a cat. Before one would have a variation in mixture significant enough to hit the limit due only to a cat it is likely one will already have P030x misfire codes. The answer in general is that one needs to observe the data. A fault code is a warning to observe the data.

An OBDII scanner is a crude but sometimes effective way to observe the data, otherwise one needs a diagnostic crystal ball. I can get a link to a company selling them: http://www.auto-video.com/product_detail.php?id=26
