The catalytic converter is installed in the
exhaust system. It serves as a catalyst to
reduce HC, CO and NOx in exhaust gases,
thus providing cleaner exhaust.
To avoid damage to the catalytic converter:
Use only unleaded fuel. Even a small
amount of leaded fuel will damage the
catalytic converter...
