It is in the exhaust pipe immediately behind the engine.
It does not have an egr valve it has a 3 way catalytic converter.
There is one and it is before the catalytic converter.
Oxygen sensors on a 1989 Toyota SR5 and located near the catalytic converter. The sensors read the emissions from the vehicle so the ECU knows ho much fuel to run in the engine.
All Oxygen Sensors are located in the exhaust eitherbefore or after the catalytic converter. Your O2 sensor may not be defective as a vacuum leak can cause the code.
First make sure the car is cool. Then you will need to get under your Thunderbird and remove the clamps that hold the catalytic converter in place between two lengths of exhaust pipe. You will then be able to remove the converter.
With the help of a belt driven air pump on the front of the engine, fresh air is pumped into the catalytic converter via the small tubes. The fresh air helps the catalytic converter burn gases in the exhaust and clean up the emissions.
It varies between 90-140.00 depending on the parts store.
Should be right before the catalytic converter. Mine is a 1988 and that's where it's at.
It is against the law and punishable with a $25,000.00 fine. This forum IS NOT to help someone do something illegal.
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).
u wont pass emission, but nothing u will get more horse power.
Hmmmmm...... guess no one has...... the converter is more of a enviromentle piece of work it will not do any harm if removed.just run the pipe right back to the muffler
