GENERAL INFORMATION
EXHAUST SYSTEM
The exhaust systems are produced in several con-
figurations, depending on engine and vehicle (Fig. 1).
AWD vehicles have a catalytic converter mounted
heat shield. The tailpipes, mufflers, and resonators
are tuned to each vehicle/powertrain combination.
CATALYTIC CONVERTERS
There is no regularly scheduled maintenance on
any Chrysler catalytic converter. If damaged, the con-
verter must be replaced.CAUTION: Due to exterior physical similarities of
some catalytic converters with pipe assemblies,
extreme care should be taken with replacement
parts. There are internal converter differences
required in some parts of the country.
The combustion reaction caused by the catalyst
releases additional heat in the exhaust system. Caus-
ing temperature increases in the area of the reactor
under severe operating conditions. Such conditions
can exist when the engine misfires or otherwise does
not operate at peak efficiency.Do notremove spark
plug wires from plugs or by any other means short
out cylinders of the exhaust system if equipped with
Fig. 1 Exhaust SystemÐTypical (All Vehicles)
NSEXHAUST SYSTEM AND INTAKE MANIFOLD 11 - 1
Page 1264 of 1938

a catalytic converter. Failure of the catalytic con-
verter can occur due to temperature increases caused
by unburned fuel igniting when passing through the
converter.
The use of the catalysts also involves some non-au-
tomotive problems. Unleaded gasoline must be used
to avoid poisoning the catalyst core. Do not allow
engine to operate at fast idle for extended periods
(over 5 minutes). This condition may result in exces-
sive exhaust system and floor pan temperatures.
EXHAUST GAS RECIRCULATION (EGR)
To assist in the control of oxides of nitrogen (NOx)
in engine exhaust, all engines are equipped with an
exhaust gas recirculation system. The use of exhaust
gas to dilute incoming air/fuel mixtures lowers peak
flame temperatures during combustion, thus limiting
the formation of NOx.
Exhaust gases are taken from opening in the
exhaust manifold passage to the intake manifold.
REFER TO SECTION 25 FOR A COMPLETE
DESCRIPTION, DIAGNOSIS AND SERVICE PRO-
CEDURES ON THE EXHAUST GAS RECIRCULA-
TION SYSTEM AND COMPONENTS.
HEAT SHIELDS
Heat shields (Fig. 2) are needed to protect both the
vehicle and the floor pan from the high temperatures
developed near the catalytic converter and muffler.
Avoid application of rust prevention com-
pounds or undercoating materials to exhaust
system floor pan heat shields on cars so
equipped. Light over spray near the edges is
permitted. Application of coating will greatlyreduce the efficiency of the heat shields result-
ing in excessive floor pan temperatures and
objectionable fumes.
EXHAUST FLEX-JOINT COUPLING
A exhaust flex-joint coupling (Fig. 3) is used to
secure the catalytic converter to the engine manifold.
This living joint actually moves back and forth as the
engine moves, preventing breakage that could occur
from the back-and-forth motion of a transverse
mounted engine.
The exhaust flex-joint has four bolts, four flag nuts
and a gasket that are separate parts from the
exhaust flex-joint. The flex-joint is welded to the cat-
alytic converter.
