Interchange Part Number : REPC960313Series : Exact Fit SeriesTube Material : Aluminized SteelYour Mitsubishi Eclipse is equipped with a durable catalytic converter that reduces harmful effects of the exhaust gases to the environment by turning them into less toxic emissions. If your catalytic converter is damaged, your Eclipse will not accelerate like it did before and the exhaust will give off foul odor. So, it pays to do whatever it takes to keep your Mitsubishi Eclipse catalytic converter in mint condition. Here are some simple maintenance tips that you can follow:
Your catalytic converter needs to have the right amount of heat in order to function properly. Thus, you must condition your vehicle by running it at highway speeds, rather than driving in short sprints. This can allow the interior honeycomb system of your catalytic converter to do its fuel burning process. Keep in mind that cold starts and stammering engine can block gases inside your catalytic converter, which can damage it prematurely. So the best thing to do is to do highway driving at regular pace.
You must maintain the cleanliness of the interior area of your catalytic converter, so you can avoid contaminants from entering the system. For this matter, you can use a fuel additive or cleaner to be absorbed by the interior honeycomb converter system. Keep in mind that you must choose a fuel cleaner that is safe for the system, and has a property that helps to reduce the effects of harmful gases that are being combusted by your catalytic converter.
You must also keep the exterior part of your catalytic converter free from dirt, aside from maintaining its interior area. If there is surface rust, you can remove it by scrubbing with a clean towel. For cases of oil and grease on the surface, you can use a mixture of degreaser and warm water. The mixture can make it easier for you to wipe the oily surface after soaking your catalytic converter in it for several minutes. You can also spray a cleaner on the surface to remove grease and dirt, and to enhance the quality of your catalytic converter as well.
A crucial part of your vehicle's emission or exhaust system, your Mitsubishi Eclipse catalytic converter allows the harmful gases to be converted into less dangerous ones before they exit the system. Thus, it is important to maintain your catalytic converter because once it is clogged or contaminated, bad fuel will be mixed with the raw fuel, and will not be emitted properly. Moreover, you should take note of contaminants that may cause your catalytic converter to malfunction. So if there are problems with your catalytic converter, you should know the common causes behind them to prevent further damage:
Stalling of engine
Misfiring pertains to the situation in which the fuel is not able to ignite because of too much oxygen or excessive rich fuel mixture that enters the combustion chamber. This causes your catalytic converter to overheat. If your catalytic converter exceeds its normal operating temperature, then the engine will stall shortly after turning it on. This is because the exhaust gases that are supposed to be out of the combustion system will not be able to exit.
Reduce fuel mileage
When you notice that your fuel economy has decreased every time you step on the accelerator, there is usually a problem with your catalytic converter. When the exhaust gases are trapped in the combustion system, they can cause your catalytic converter to be clogged. As a result, the circulation of gases is decreased due to the resistance from your catalytic converter. Thus, you will experience a drop in gas mileage whenever you accelerate.
Evident foul smell
If there is an evident foul smell in your vehicle that is similar to rotten eggs, you should check your catalytic converter. The fuel that is being combusted contains hydrogen sulfide, which is converted to sulfur dioxide to reduce its harmful effect before being released. However, the said compound will not be changed if your catalytic converter is clogged. This compound contains a little amount of sulfur, which has a foul smell. If your catalytic converter is not able to make the compound less harmful, the sulfur can be smelled evidently.
