EXHAUST SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
The exhaust system consists of a catalytic converter,
muffler, and a resonator with connecting pipes in-be-
tween (Fig. 1). The system is serviced in two sections;
the catalytic converter and pipe, and the muffler and
resonator with connecting pipe. A band clamp is usedto connect the joint between the two components.
Three support hanger rods with rubber isolators are
used to support and isolate the exhaust system. A flex-
ible joint, integral to the catalytic converter, allows for
engine movement. On vehicles equipped with AWD, an
additional heat shield is mounted to the catalytic con-
verter. The exhaust system is tuned for each vehicle/
powertrain combination.

(1) Disconnect and remove the upstream (before
catalytic converter) oxygen sensor. (Refer to 14 -
FUEL SYSTEM/FUEL INJECTION/O2 SENSOR -
REMOVAL)
(2) Install the Exhaust Back Pressure Fitting
Adaptor CH8519.
(3) Connect the Low Pressure Sensor (15 psi)
CH7063 to the back pressure fitting.
(4) Following the PEP module instruction manual,
connect all required cables to the DRB IIItand PEP
module. Select the available menu options on the
DRBIIItdisplay screen for using the digital pressure
gauge function.
(5) Apply the park brake and start the engine.
(6) With transmission in Park or Neutral, raise
engine speed to 2000 RPM. Monitor the pressure
readings on the DRBIIIt. Back pressure should not
exceed specified limit. Refer to specification in table
below EXHAUST BACK PRESSURE LIMITS .
NOTE: For applications with dual catalytic convert-
ers, repeat test on opposite converter using the
previous steps.
(7) If pressure exceeds maximum limits, inspect
exhaust system for restricted component. For further
catalytic converter inspection procedures, (Refer to 11
- EXHAUST SYSTEM/CATALYTIC CONVERTER -
INSPECTION). Replace component(s) as necessary.
EXHAUST BACK PRESSURE LIMITS
Exhaust Back Pressure Limit (Max)
Vehicle in Park/Neutral
(no load) RPM3.45 Kpa (0.5 psi)
INSPECTION
Inspect the exhaust pipes, catalytic converters,
muffler, and resonators for cracked joints, broken
welds and corrosion damage that would result in a
leaking exhaust system. Inspect the clamps, support
brackets, and insulators for cracks and corrosion
damage.
NOTE: Slip joint band clamps are spot welded to
exhaust system. If a band clamp must be replaced,
the spot weld must be ground off.
ADJUSTMENTS
A misaligned exhaust system is usually indicated
by a vibration, rattling noise, or binding of exhaust
system components. These noises are sometimes hard
to distinguish from other chassis noises. Inspect
exhaust system for broken, damaged or loose compo-
nents such as; clamps, heat shields, isolators, andhanger brackets. Replace or tighten as necessary. It
is important that exhaust system clearances and
alignment be maintained.
Perform the following procedures to align the
exhaust system:
(1) Loosen band clamp at catalytic converter pipe
to muffler/resonator assembly.
(2) Align the exhaust system by inserting pipe
inward or outward until specification is achieved as
shown in (Fig. 2).
(3) Tighten band clamp to 54 N´m (40 ft. lbs.).
