A manifold glowing red on the passenger side typically indicates an overheating issue, often due to a lean fuel mixture, excessive exhaust temperatures, or a malfunctioning component such as the catalytic converter. This condition can lead to severe engine damage if not addressed promptly. It's important to stop the vehicle immediately and have it inspected by a professional mechanic to diagnose and repair the underlying problem. Continuing to drive under these conditions can cause further damage to the engine and exhaust system.

Why would a 2000 Explorer lose power and the cab fill with smoke and smell of sulfur The manifold was glowing red Is this a Catalytic Converter problem?

It could be running lean. Check the fuel filter. It could also be a vacuum leak or the EGR valve. It would probably be a good idea to not run it much until you've worked out the problem. There are quite a few possibilities, and some of them are not very expensive, but if the exhaust manifold is getting that hot you could be damaging your exhaust valves. If the exhaust manifold is glowing, it's not the cat-converter.

A glowing charcoal appears red because it emits light in the red part of the spectrum as it gets heated. The high temperature causes the charcoal to emit visible light, with red being the most prominent color due to its longer wavelength.


Why does the Manifold over heat?

The manifold has no way of overheating, it's a piece of metal if its glowing red then the exhaust may be plugged up, or the engine timing is retarded, or you have an ignition misfire. Everyone should have a manual for their vehicle (parts store or dealer), and a local library should have professional shop manuals available in the REFERENCE section for free.
