Textbook Question
Chapter 24, Problem 9CQ
Why is the catalytic converter placed as close to the engine as possible?
- a. For easier access when working on the engine
- b. So the heat can help the converter work most efficiently
- c. To allow the exhaust pipes from the catalytic converter rearward to be as long as possible
- d. To prevent the heat from the exhaust system moving upward toward the floor of the vehicle
