PRECAUTIONS FOR A CATALYTIC CONVERTER
CAUTION:
If large amounts of unburned gasoline flow into the converter,
it may overheat and create a fire hazard. To prevent this,
observe the following precautions and explain them to your
customer.
1.
Use unleaded gasoline only.
2.
Avoid prolonged idling.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
Avoid running the engine at fast idle speed for more than 10
minutes and at idle speed for more than 20 minutes.
Avoid spark jump test.
Spark jump only when absolutely necessary. Perform this test
as rapidly as possible and, while testing, never race the engine.
Avoid prolonged engine compression measurement. Engine
compression tests must be made as rapidly as possible.
Do not run engine when fuel tank is nearly empty. This may
cause the engine to misfire and create an extra load on the
converter.
Avoid coasting with ignition turned off and prolonged braking.
Do not dispose of used catalyst along with parts contaminated
with gasoline or oil.
