Precautions to ensure trouble free operation of
catalytic converter
1. Use only unleaded gasoline (95RON).
2. Engine compression checks should be carried out
within the shortest possible time only.
3. If necessary then only conduct a spark jump test
within the shortest possible time..
4. Clean the catalytic converter by blowing
compressed air in reverse direction.
5. Do not park the car on inflammable materials like
dry grass, cotton waste etc. as the exhaust system
is hot enough to initiate fire.
6. Avoid driving with fuel tank getting almost empty.
7. Catalytic converter should not be exposed to any
impulse.
Catalytic converter maintenance procedure
(a) Catalytic Converter should be flushed by giving
full throttle (4 to 5 times) in standing condition of
vehicle.
(b) High speed running of the vehicle may be done
periodically to avoid chocking of catalytic
converter.
(c) Alternatively flushing operation for cleaning the
catalytic converter can be done by dry compressed
air draft (3 to 4 bars) directed on the ceramic body
of catalytic converter (after removing from vehicle)
(d) Avoid pre-coating/painting of Catalytic Converter.
