Three Way Catalytic Converter: Testing and Inspection
Inspect for damage, cracking or deterioration. Replace it faulty.
CAUTION
-
The catalytic converters require the use of unleaded gasoline only. Leaded gasoline will destroy the effectiveness of the catalysts as an emission
control device.
-
Under normal operating conditions, the catalytic converters will not require maintenance. However, it is important to keep the engine properly
tuned. Engine misfiring may cause overheating of the catalysts. This may cause heat damage to the converters or vehicle components. The
situation can also occur during diagnostic testing it any spark plug cables are removed and the engine is allowed to idle for a prolonged period of
time.
