- The basic exhaust system consists of a exhaust pipe assembly with catalytic converters (17), muffler/tailpipe assembly and heat shields.
- 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 mm (1.0 in.). If the system contacts any body panel, it may amplify objectionable noises from the engine or body.
- When inspecting an exhaust system, critically inspect for cracked or loose joints, stripped screw or bolt threads, corrosion damage and worn, cracked or broken hangers. Replace all components that are badly corroded or damaged. DO NOT attempt to repair.
- When replacement is required, use original equipment parts (or equivalent). This will assure proper engine function and system alignment.
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.
