What is the general description and function of a catalytic converter on Ford Escape?

Because of a Federally-mandated extended warranty covering emission-related components such as the catalytic converter, it is advisable to check with a dealer service department before replacing the converter at your own expense. A catalytic converter is an emission control device in the exhaust system that reduces certain pollutants in the exhaust gas stream, with two types available: an oxidation catalyst that reduces hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide, and a reduction catalyst that reduces oxides of nitrogen. Models equipped with three-way catalysts can reduce all three pollutants. The test equipment for diagnosing a catalytic converter is expensive, so if malfunction is suspected, it is best to take the vehicle to a dealer or authorized emission inspection facility. When servicing underbody components, inspect the converter for leaks, corrosion, dents, and other damage, paying close attention to the welds and flange bolts that attach it to the exhaust system; any noted damage warrants replacement of the converter. Although catalytic converters are generally durable, they can become clogged or plugged. To check for a restricted converter, connect a vacuum gauge to an intake manifold vacuum source, warm the engine to operating temperature, place the transaxle in Park or Neutral, and apply the parking brake. Record the vacuum reading at idle, then quickly open and close the throttle, noting the vacuum reading after each test. If the fourth reading is more than one in-Hg lower than the idle reading, the exhaust system may be restricted, indicating a potential blockage in the catalytic converter or other exhaust components.

Ford Escape Catalytic Converter

Catalytic converter is part of Ford Escape exhaust and emission systems which is required to transform toxic fumes such as Carbon Monoxide (CO), Hydrocarbons (HC) and Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx) into harmless substances such as water and Carbon Dioxide (CO2). Utilising a honeycomb substrate embedded with such catalysts as platinum, palladium and rhodium, the Ford Escape catalytic converter enables these chemical reactions in accordance with environmental requirements. Throughout the years, a number of styles of catalytic converters have been used on the Ford Escape ranging from direct fit systems as well as universal ones. Direct fit converters are derived to include easily while on the other hand, universal converters need some adjustments to be made. Maintenance is very important because there may occur problems like clogging, overheating or contamination that may lead to poor performance and in most cases they are replaced with a new one at each 100000 miles. The main role of the catalytic converter is to improve the car's efficiency and minimize emissions, therefore, it is crucial to make sure it works correctly.

We provide a wide range of Ford Escape Catalytic Converter at the best prices possible. If you need Ford Escape Catalytic Converter, you can shop with confidence on our website. All our OEM parts come with a manufacturer's warranty and are delivered to your door step with a fast delivery service.
