Will the car have more power after removing the catalytic converter?
1 Answers
Removing the catalytic converter will not make the car more powerful. The catalytic converter is the most important external purification device installed in the automobile exhaust system. Its working principle is: when high-temperature automobile exhaust gas passes through the purification device, the purifying agent in the catalytic converter will enhance the activity of CO, HC, and NOx gases, promoting certain oxidation-reduction chemical reactions. Below are the methods for cleaning the catalytic converter: 1. Add cleaning agent to the fuel tank; 2. Use an intravenous drip cleaning method, where the cleaning agent is drawn into the combustion chamber through the intake vacuum suction and burned, achieving the purpose of restoring the catalytic converter's activity through oxidation-reduction reactions inside the catalytic converter; 3. Disassemble and clean, remove the catalytic converter and soak it in oxalic acid and toilet cleaner, then rinse with clean water.
