Catalytic Converter: Testing and Inspection

1.

Visually inspect exterior of converters.  If severe damage is noted, such a dented, crushed or rusted out shell, replace converter.

2.

Whenever a converter is removed from vehicle, check ceramic element through exhaust inlet and outlet.  If element is clogged, melted or otherwise
damaged, replace converter.

3.

If a converter is suspected of being restricted, measure exhaust backpressure.
