Local Exhaust System Repair In Agawam, MA
Most exhaust systems have four main parts— the manifold, the catalytic converter, the muffler, and a system of pipes that connect these pieces. The manifold connects to the engine as a container for the resulting fumes. The exhaust then moves to the catalytic converter, which heats up to help burn any residual fuel that didn’t burn off in the engine. The exhaust then moves to the muffler where the sound of the engine is quieted before the exhaust exits through the tailpipe. If any of these components are not working properly, it’s critical to get professional exhaust system repair as soon as possible.
Some of the most common symptoms of a broken exhaust system include:
- An especially loud exhaust
- Hissing or popping noises
- Leaks
- Vibrations
- Poor gas mileage
The longer an issue with your exhaust system is ignored, the greater the chances for bigger problems down the road.
