@ericalzablon: Catalytic converter conditions Clogged catalytic converter: the internal structure remains physically complete, but its channels are blocked by deposits or molten material. It increases exhaust repressiveness, reduces gas flow, and the engine may experience power loss, difficulty in increasing RPM, and excessive temperature in the exhaust. Broken catalytic converter: the ceramic monolith fractures and parts of the material may come loose or shift inside the housing. The fragments may partially block the gas outlet. These can be internal noises, performance loss, variable repressiveness, and codes related to the efficiency of the catalytic converter. Dirty catalytic converter: deposits are present on the active surface, but this does not necessarily mean it is blocked. Oil, unburned fuel, soot, or combustion residues can cover the catalytic material and reduce its ability to convert HC, CO, and NOx. Before intervening, it must be determined what engine condition caused the contamination. Catalytic converter in good condition: the substrate retains its structure, the channels allow the uniform passage of gases, and the catalytic surface maintains its conversion capacity. However, seeing it clean does not confirm its efficiency: the diagnosis must be complemented with signals from oxygen, temperature, emissions sensors, and, when there is a suspicion of restriction, repressiveness measurement. #fyp #viral #tiktok
