EXHAUST SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
CAUTION: Avoid application of rust prevention com­pounds or undercoating materials to exhaust sys­tem floor pan exhaust heat shields. Light overspray near the edges is permitted. Application of coating will result in excessive floor pan temperatures and objectionable fumes.
The federal gasoline engine exhaust system con­sists of engine exhaust manifolds, exhaust pipes, cat­alytic converter(s), extension pipe (if needed), exhaust heat shields, muffler and exhaust tailpipe.
The California emission vehicles exhaust system also contains the above components as well as mini catalytic converters added to the exhaust pipe.
The exhaust system must be properly aligned to prevent stress, leakage and body contact. Minimum clearance between any exhaust component and the body or frame is 25.4 mm (1.0 in.). If the system con­tacts any body panel, it may amplify objectionable noises from the engine or body.

CATALYTIC CONVERTER
DESCRIPTION - CATALYTIC CONVERTER
WARNING: THE NORMAL OPERATING TEMPERA­TURE OF THE EXHAUST SYSTEM IS VERY HIGH. THEREFORE, NEVER WORK AROUND OR ATTEMPT TO SERVICE ANY PART OF THE EXHAUST SYSTEM UNTIL IT IS COOLED. SPECIAL CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN WHEN WORKING NEAR THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER. THE TEMPERATURE OF THE CON­VERTER RISES TO A HIGH LEVEL AFTER A SHORT PERIOD OF ENGINE OPERATION TIME.
CAUTION: DO NOT remove spark plug wires from plugs or by any other means short out cylinders. Failure of the catalytic converter can occur due to a temperature increase caused by unburned fuel passing through the converter.
The stainless steel catalytic converter body is designed to last the life of the vehicle. Excessive heat can result in bulging or other distortion, but exces­sive heat will not be the fault of the converter. If unburned fuel enters the converter, overheating may occur. If a converter is heat-damaged, correct the cause of the damage at the same time the converter is replaced. Also, inspect all other components of the exhaust system for heat damage.
Unleaded gasoline must be used to avoid con­taminating the catalyst core.
50 State emission vehicles incorporate two mini catalytic converters located after the exhaust mani­folds and before the inline catalytic converter.
OPERATION
The catalytic converter captures and burns any unburned fuel mixture exiting the combustion cham­bers during the exhaust stroke of the engine. This process aids in reducing emissions output.

WARNING: IF TORCHES ARE USED WHEN WORK­ING ON THE EXHAUST SYSTEM, DO NOT ALLOW THE FLAME NEAR THE FUEL LINES.
(1) Raise and support the vehicle. (2) Saturate the bolts and nuts with heat valve
lubricant. Allow 5 minutes for penetration.
(3) Remove the bolts from the crossover pipe to the
catalytic converter connection.
(4) Disconnect oxygen sensor wiring.
(5) Loosen the nuts from the clamp that hold the catalytic converter to the exhaust pipe flange connec­tion.
NOTE: Do not remove nut from T-Bolt. Only remove nut far enough, so that the T end can be removed from the clamp.
(6) Remove the T bolt end of the fastener, from the clamp.
(7) Spread the clamp, and remove the catalytic converter from the vehicle.
(8) Discard the clamp.
NOTE: The catalytic converter to exhaust manifold clamp is not reusable. Always use a new clamp when reinstalling the catalytic converter.
(1) Position the catalytic converter onto the exhaust pipe flange connection. Tighten the nuts to 28 N·m (250 in. lbs.) torque.
(2) Install the muffler onto the catalytic converter until the alignment tab is inserted into the align­ment slot.
(3) Install the exhaust clamp at the muffler and catalytic converter connection. Tighten the clamp nuts to 47 N·m (35 ft. lbs.) torque.
(4) Connect oxygen sensor wiring.
(5) Lower the vehicle.
(6) Start the engine and inspect for exhaust leaks and exhaust system contact with the body panels. Adjust the alignment, if needed.
INSTALLATION
(1) Assemble converter and clamps loosely in place.
(2) Install the exhaust pipe onto exhaust mani­folds, tighten 31 N·m (23 ft. lbs.).
(3) Tighten all clamp nuts to 48 N·m (35 ft. lbs.) torque.
(4) Lower the vehicle.
(5) Start the engine and inspect for exhaust leaks and exhaust system contact with the body panels. A minimum of 25.4 mm (1.0 in.) is required between exhaust system components and body/frame parts. Adjust the alignment, if needed.
EXHAUST PIPE
REMOVAL
(1) Raise and support vehicle. (2) Saturate the bolts and nuts with heat valve
lubricant. Allow 5 minutes for penetration.
(3) Remove clamps and nuts. (4) Remove the catalytic converter.
INSPECTION
Look at the stainless steel body of the converter, inspect for bulging or other distortion that could be a result of overheating. If the converter has a heat shield attached make sure it is not bent or loose.
If you suspect internal damage to the catalyst, tap­ping the bottom of the catalyst with a rubber mallet may indicate a damaged core.

(1) Raise and support the vehicle. (2) Saturate the bolts and nuts with heat valve
lubricant. Allow 5 minutes for penetration.
(3) Remove exhaust pipe to manifold bolts, retain-
ers and nuts.
(4) Remove the clamp nuts. (5) Remove the exhaust pipe (Fig. 1).
REMOVAL
CAUTION: When servicing or replacing exhaust system components, disconnect the oxygen sensor connector(s). Allowing the exhaust to hang by the oxygen sensor wires will damage the harness and/or sensor.
(1) Raise and support the vehicle. (2) Saturate the bolts and nuts with Mopart Rust
Penetrant. Allow 5 minutes for penetration.
(3) Disconnect the oxygen sensor(s).
