Loss of power, poor fuel mileage, and the converter will get extremely hot and may even turn red.
hi . I just went to the auto parts and they tell me that there are 3 catalytic converters on a 2001 Mazda mpv .
replace sensor,catalytic converters smell like rotten eggs when going bad
I believe there are 2 oxygen sensors that are used for air / fuel ratio and 2 oxygen sensors that are downstream from the catalytic converters and are called catalyst monitors
Any salvage yard or salvage web site can give you a list and locations of top dollar prices.
You can tell if synchronizers are broken in the transmission on a 2001 ford escape by checking the sychronizers.
Rotten egg smell? Loss of power?
Yes. some Cherokees had recalls on a computer update and a new converter call your local dealer they can tell you free repair if recalled
Diagnostics
have it scaned by a snapon computer it will tell the bad one
There are 4 total oxygen sensors on a ford explorer. Two of them being before the catalytic (Pre-cat, closest to the front of the vehicle), and the other 2, after the catalytic (post-cat). You have to first figure out which bank the bad reading is coming from, then you have to determine if its post-cat, or pre-cat, most autoparts store will be able to tell you if your "CHECK ENGINE" light is on. ?ake sure when purchasing an oxygen sensor for your explorer, that it is HEATED, otherwise nothing will match up underneath. There are 2 sensors between the converters and the manifold. Also, between the catalytic and the muffler. Hope I could help!
Go to NAPA or AutoZone, they will tell you.
Mn2+ ion is responsible for the catalytic action
