Can a car run without an exhaust manifold?
Yes. A car can run without an exhaust manifold. It will burn out the exhaust valves in the cylinders a lot faster than normal, but it can be done.
Can a 1996 Ford Taurus run without a catalytic converter where is the o2 sensor at?
Yes, the Taurus can run without the catalytic converter--it is not necessarily good for the engine, but disconnecting it will cause it to fail emissions testing. If you've seen the Honda Civics running around smoking like a factory, this is caused by no electrolytic converter. The O2 sensor could be in the exhaust pipe between the manifold and converter.
Is an exhaust leak common on 97 Jeep Wrangler 4 cylinder?
Not any more than any other vehicle, but the weak point is where the exhaust meets the manifold. a new clamp and gasket will improve things a lot. Sometimes a crack will form in the manifold itself, this can be welded in most cases, but is hard to detect without a smoke test.
Can you start your car without the exhaust manifold?
Yes you CAN start your car w/o the exhaust manifold mounted.....However, if you do, you are VERY likely to crack a valve. Your exhaust system protects the valves from cool air contacting a hot valve.
Can you drive with a cylinder misfire?
A misfire on a car with a catalytic converter will overheat and destroy the converter due to unburned fuel in the exhaust. on a car without a catalytic converter, it will still wash the cylinder with unburned fuel and break down the oil, but not do any serious damage in the short term. it is possible but not good because u can screw the rest of ur motor up it is better to fix before u drive it
How do you remove a catalytic converter from a 1992 Chevy Truck?
You cut it off of the exhaust system and replace it with a straight piece of exhaust pipe Know that it is illegal to remove a converter without replacing it with a new one.
Can you change your catalytic converter exhaust system on your peugeot 306 to a exhaust system without a catalytic converter?
no. the catalytic converter system is there for a reason. it is reducing the impact of emissions on the environment.yes. you can but your vehicle may not pass emission standards in your state check before you remove it.
Where is the converter on a 1997 Ford Expedition Eddie Bauer?
The torque converter or the catalytic converter? The torque converter is inside the bellhousing that connects the engine to the transmission. The catalytic converter is inline of the exhaust pipe ahead of the muffler; it's probably the first bulge in the exhaust. Removing your catalytic converter is illegal and if your state has a vehicle inspection your car won't pass without it.
Where is the oxygen sensor on a 1995 Chevy Cavalier?
Look under the hood, the front of the engine, on the exhaust manifold. It should be the only thing with wire/s on the manifold. You will need a special socket to remove it. The tool is available to "Borrow" from the folks at AutoZone. If you need any further info, just gimme a shout. Actually it depends on the engine. The 2.3/2.4 has the exhaust manifold on the back side of the engine - between the engine and firewall. You'll most likely have to get under the car to remove the O2 sensor. On the 2.2 the exhaust manifold is on the "front" of the engine between the engine and the front crossmember. You should be able to get to this O2 sensor without getting under the car (note I said *should*). Either way they're located on the exhaust manifold, before the catalytic converter.
Why does a muffler have two tail pipes from one muffler?
A cheaper option for dual exhaust without making it a true dual exhaust from the exhaust manifold/headers. Not much performance gained just appearance.
Where is right upstream 02 sensor Dodge Dakota 3.9L?
The right side one is the passenger side one. Upstream means that it's on the engine side of the catalytic converter. Follow the exhaust pipe down from the passenger side exhaust manifold until you get to what looks a little like a spark plug screwed into the exhaust pipe with two wires attached. That's your upstream, right side O2 sensor. If you get to the catalytic converter without finding it, you've either missed it, or there isn't one equipped.
On a 1996 Nissan Maxima which O2 sensor is Bank 2 Sensor 1 since there are three sensors?
Bank 1 Sensor 1: Located on rear exhaust manifold pipe nearest the firewall. Fairly easy to remove with the right tools. Clip located on left side of engine compartment.Bank 1 Sensor 2: Located just behind the Catalytic Converter. Very easy to remove and clips on just inside rubber gromet.Bank 2 Sensor 1: Located on front exhaust manifold pipe nearest the radiator. Hard to reach without specific tools. Clip located in front of engine compartment.Bank 1 = both front firewall-side sensor (1) AND rear sensor (2). Bank 2 = front radiator-side sensor (1). Bank one refers to the section of the manifold that vents exhaust from the cylinder bank including cylinder #1...bank two = from cylinder #2 and its comrades.
