While under the car preparing it for the road, (see previous battery box
posting) I
noticed that the catalytic converter has a white deposit around the out side
of it perhaps 
indicating that it was running hot.  I also think that I remember thinking
same when 
I had it on the road last. 

My question is, how do I determine if the catalytic converter is running
hot, and if it is
would this be an indication of a lean carb setting ?  What else might cause
it ?  
I would hate to burn up the B because of a hot converter.

Thanks in advance,
