Cars did not get catalytic converters until 74. Trucks were 81, or 82.
its normally situated to the right(passenger side)of the outlet manifold on the block of the engine depending on what car it is but most are the same
It can, if the substrate breaks free from inside the body of the cat, it can block the outlet pipe. If the exhaust can not get out, the engine will stall.
Apparently it has three. Two Pre-Catalytic converters right after the engine block, and a third after the y-junction and flex pipe. This is so the car meets the European emissions standards.
Disconnect the frontand rear o2 sensor electrical connectors. Separate the catalytic converter from the flex-pipe. Remove the fasteners between the catalytic converter and the exhaust manifold. Disconnect the EGR tube from the catalytic converter. Remove band from the front of the catalytic that holds it to the bracket on the front of the engine block. Remove fasteners holding exhaust manifold to head.
Catalytic converters do not rattle. If it does it will need to be replaced as it may block the exhaust. Loose heat shield?
Bank one is on the passenger side of the block.
it is not a cracked engine block it is just a loose block
There is coolant in the engine block when the engine is not running. The engine block, heater, hoses and radiator remain full when engine is not running.
The 2007 Ford escape engine block heater is located on the right hand side of the engine block. You can follow the block heater cord to the block heater.
You can't, - it must have an engine block.
No.
