•, which is produced when nitrogen combines with oxygen under the effect of heat in the engine. This substance is the main cause of acid rain and smog.
• Carbon monoxide, which is generated by the combustion of fuel and harmful to all air-breathing animal. • Hydrocarbon, which is in the form of unburned fuel and often produces smog.
In the catalytic converter, catalyst, which is often in the form of palladium and platinum, is coated onto ceramic beads or a ceramic honeycomb that are located in a package like the muffler. In general, this catalyst would help the car in converting nitrogen oxide to oxygen and nitrogen, hydrocarbon to water and carbon dioxide as well as carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide. • Ethyne welding torch • High-frame jack or pneumatic lift • Air compressor • Steel-wired arc welder • Welding face mask for protection • Powered grinding wheel • Steel putty knife • Fireproof gloves • Chisel • Ball peen hammer • Crowbar • Cold-weld epoxy • Broad-nose plier Firstly, separate the catalytic converter from the car’s muffler. If the engine suddenly sounds less ratty and smoother, the catalytic converter would be plugged. If you want to gut the catalytic converter on the car, follow the process below to get it without the need of removing it. Put on the gloves and welding mask, then join the flap shut with steel strip melted to match the welding torch. In general, you could use the medium-high to medium setting of the welder to melt the steel wires effectively.

Use the steel putty knife to make the welded metal smooth while it is still hot.• Step 7: Check if any leakage When you run the engine of the car, the hissing noise, rattles or extra-loud echoing sound would show you that there are still leakage of air in the catalytic converter. In this situation, you need to fix these leaks by using cold-weld epoxy, which is often applied to seal small holes in.• Step 8: Other choices You could also make the catalytic converter clear after removing this device from your car. When the engine is still off, detach the exhaust pipe and rear exhaust clamp, then remove the catalytic converter in front of the muffler from the exhaust pipe. Gently shake the device. If there are no sound, the converter would probably be blocked by unburned gas.
If it sound rattling, then the ceramic lining would be disintegrated under the effect of heat. In both situations, you need to change the catalytic converter as soon as possible.
