check the cad. converter ======================== That's normal if you dive the car "HARD" .. Turbo kicks in and lots of air/fuel => exhaust then too hot

Can you use jb weld on a cracked exhaust manifold?
You can try, but it will not stay. The heating and cooling of the manifold will cause the JB weld to fall off.You can try, but it will not stay. The heating and cooling of the manifold will cause the JB weld to fall off.
What may be the cause of over heating and water coming out the manifold of 2001-2003 izuzu rodeo sport already changed the thermostat?
if it's coming out the exhaust manifold it could be a blown head gasket or cracked head.
Does intake manifold affects the heating system in the car?
Intake or inlet manifold has nothing to do with the heating of the car. Newaz.
Where is the heating shield located on 1999 ford contour?
The heat shield on the engine is located on the front of the engine over the exhaust manifold. It is on top of the engine just behind the radiator.
What are the step by step instructions to replace the bank one oxygen sensor in a 1999 Chevy Cavalier Z24?
These are most difficult to remove.Caution must be used. There are 2 of them.One in the exhaust manifold(upstream) and another in the exhaust pipe past the Catalytic Converter(downstream). Bank 1 refers to the first one.That one is in the exhaust manifold and MOST IMPOSSIBLE to remove.But,you must run the car to get it hot,it will not come out cold.It may be advisible to remove the manifold and use a vise, heating torch and some tough love or you may end up breaking the manifold or mounting studs on the cylinder head. As much as the O2 sensors cost it is cheaper to go to a salvage yard and get the whole manifold.They are not in the scrap yard because of a bad 02 sensor. Good Luck and dont feel bad if things bust in a zillion pieces,that happens alot.
Why does your catilac converter heat up so brigth red it is a 1989 Jeep Cherokee?
I dont quite understand the question, but if it is what i think it is, then the reason a catalytic converter heats up very hot is because it is a component that uses exhaust fumes, and ehaust fumes are hot as they are the end result of an explosion that happened in the engine, therefore heating up its surroundings and making the catalytic converter hot. a catalytic converter glowing red is normal, and even in my 50cc moped (which was new) the catalytic converter glowed red, so for one in a car engine, that doesnt surprise me (far more exhaust fumes).
What causes Over heating on a scenic 1999?
the exhaust and the seats.
Is the 02 sensor connected to the vent solenoid?
O2 (oxygen) sensors come in pairs. One is placed before the catalytic converter to get an exhaust reading for unused fuel vapors. The other is placed after the converter to measure the same. The on board computer compares the two readings to make sure the converter is working (heating up to burn unused gas vapors for cleaner emissions).
What is exhaust recirculation system ad what does it do?
Automotive, the exhaust gas is recirculated to burn the gas that didn't get burned completely the first time. Home heating, the exhaust is recirculated to recover the heat from it to help heat the home. This reduces the overall cost of heating.
Where is location of 02 sensor for 1997 Chevrolet Cavalier?
There should be 2 of them. Upstream and downstream. Upstream means before the catalytic converter(usally screwed into the exhaust maifold) and downstream after the catalytic converter(usally in the exhaust pipe) I have seen in some repair manuals it is located inside the computer,but I have never found one there. Look on your exhaust system first. And they are a REAL PAIN to get out. So dont be discouraged if you mess somthing up, or pay someone that has a heating tourch and knows lots of cuss words. Good Luck with this painfull project....
Why does smoke billow from under engine after short run and ignition is switched off its not overheating could it be the supplementary heating?
I would pop the hood when the car is running and see where the smoke is coming from. My bet is oil or coolant leaking onto the exhaust manifold
Can you drill holes in catalytic converter to help from overheating?
no if theres a hole , it broken . why is it over heating and how do you know its over heating, you cant look at it?
