No. The exhaust manifold only carries burned exhaust fumes from the engine to the rear of the vehicle. It has nothing to do with the oil or fuel system. It also cannot prevent the engine from starting. However a clogged catalytic converter can cause the engine not to start. Fuel in the oil is caused by a leaking injector on a FI engine or a bad needle valve and seat of an carburetor engine.

What does error code 32 for your 1992 Saturn SL2 mean the car doesn't start What does the EGR do and can it prevent the car from starting?

A code 32 indicates a EGR system fault. The EGR valve takes some of the exhaust gases from the combustion cycle and returns them into the intake air system. This cuts down on the NOx emissions. A faulty EGR valve shouldn't keep a car from starting. The repair for a code 32 is to replace the EGR valve.


My Car has problems starting when hot?

the problem is that your starter is heating up , possibly because the exahaust manifold is located very close to the starter. let the car cool down, spray water on the starter, (cool water), or to prevent the problem, insulate the starter with a heat wrap or heat shield to prevent the starter from overheating and not working.also dude u need to check coolant level..it mite have reached very low due to wiz problm is occurring in ur car


Will a bad freeze plug prevent car from starting?

A bad freeze plug will leak coolant and cause the engine to overheat.


Is it important to replace the O2 sensor on 1998 escort?

The O2 sensor provides necesary information to the computer. If the vehicle is burning too much fuel there will be insufficient O2 in the exhaust. If there is too MUCH O2 in the exhaust there is a possibility that the vehicle is not performing properly and also the possibility that you will burn valves, although your EGR valve should prevent that. Periodic replacement of your O2 sensor is just good maintenance and helps with good fuel economy.


Where is the PCV valve on a 1983 Honda Accord sedan?

The Honda's engine is equipped with a Dual Return System to prevent crankcase vapor emissions. Blow-by gas is returned to the combustion chamber through the intake manifold and carburetor air cleaner. When the throttle is partially opened, blow-by gas is returned to the intake manifold through breather tubes leading into the tee orifice located on the outside of the intake manifold. When the throttle is opened wide and vacuum in the air cleaner rises, blow-by gas is returned to the intake manifold through an additional passage in the air cleaner case. Squeeze the lower end of the drain tube located between the valve cover and the intake and drain any oil or water which may have collected. Make sure that the intake manifold T-joint is clear by passing the shank end of a No. 65 (0.035 inch diameter) drill through both ends (orifices) of the joint. Check for any loose, disconnected or deteriorated tubes and replace (if necessary).

What causes a Leak at connection to exhaust system?

Most connections / joints between parts have a gasket to prevent leaks. So a failed gasket is a typical cause of leaks, including where the exhaust pipes connects to the exhaust manifold.


What does the manifold assembly do?

The air/gas mixture from the carb is drawn into the cylinder through the Inlet manifold. The inlet manifold is designed so that there is sufficient volume of air/gas to meet the engine needs at all revs. Each branch is designed to create minimum air turbulence thus allowing the intake mixture to be sufficiently abundant at high revs to prevent power tail off. The exhaust gasses are forced through the Exhaust manifold to the exhaust pipe. The exhaust manifold and exhaust system are designed to over handle the volume of exhaust gasses so that there is not a loss of power at high revs. Exhaust manifolds, helped by the cylinder firing order, have even heat dissipation to prevent cracking.

How do 1996 Subaru Outback exhaust parts connect?

In the 1996 Subaru Outback, the exhaust system typically connects through a series of flanges and clamps. The exhaust headers connect to the catalytic converter, which then leads to the mid-pipe. The mid-pipe is secured with hangers and connects to the rear muffler, allowing for proper exhaust flow and minimizing vibrations. Each section is designed for a tight fit to prevent leaks and ensure efficient operation.


Do you use exhaust sealant on straight pipe exhaust?

Yes, wherever there is a joint between 2 pipes, use exhaust sealant to prevent a bad seal between the pipes, which will prevent it blowing.


Why does car sound like airplane?

A car that sounds like an airplane could be due to a problem with the exhaust system or the engine. It could be a result of a leaking exhaust manifold gasket or a damaged muffler. It's important to have the car inspected by a mechanic to identify and address the issue to prevent any further damage.


Do you use exhaust sealant on straight pipe joints?

Yes, wherever there is a joint between 2 pipes, use exhaust sealant to prevent a bad seal between the pipes, which will prevent it blowing.


How can I prevent condensation in my furnace exhaust system?

To prevent condensation in your furnace exhaust system, ensure proper insulation and ventilation, maintain consistent temperatures, and schedule regular maintenance to keep the system running efficiently.


What will blocked water box do to jet ski?

A blocked water box will prevent water from flowing into the exhaust system. Because jet skis have a fully-enclosed engine space, cooling of the exhaust system is vital to prevent overheating. With no cooling water flowing into the exhaust system, the exhaust system will overheat. Exactly what happens depends on the model and to some extent on luck. But usually one of the exhaust connections will burn through, causing exhaust to leak into the bilge.


What is the heat screen on your focus for?

If you are referring to the screen surrounding the catalytic converter of the exhaust system - - - it is there to prevent people and objects from accidentally touching the EXTREMELY hot surface of the converter and being badly burned or starting a fire.


How can I prevent condensation in my furnace exhaust pipe?

To prevent condensation in your furnace exhaust pipe, ensure proper insulation and ventilation, maintain consistent temperature in the pipe, and schedule regular maintenance to check for any blockages or leaks.


How do you locate a starter in my 1996 eagle summit?

The easiest way is to first remove the air intake hose. This is located on the left side of the engine compartment when looking from the front of the car. One end of the hose is where you're air filter is located. The other end of the hose connects to the intake manifold. I believe it is only one screw for the clamp that connects it to the intake manifold. There is also a sensor that is plugged into this section of hose that will need to be unplugged to remove it. Once this hose is removed, you will have increased visibility behind the engine. The starter is located behind the engine just under the intake manifold. You will see a "lump" on the edge of the transmission case toward the top of the transmission where the starter connects to the flywheel. There are only two bolts holding it in place -- one on each sice of the lump. Remember to disconnect battery power before removing the starter. This will prevent shorting the wires.
