Jacksonville Exhaust System Repair & Maintenance
Muffler
The
muffler is the exhaust system component principally responsible for
reducing the sounds made by the engine. Mufflers and other exhaust
system components are often replaced together because of the worn
condition of all the components or because sections are welded together.
Maintenance and automobile:
A
louder than normal sound from the exhaust or exhaust coming from an
unusual place in your automobile are warning signs of potential exhaust
leaks, including odorless automobilebon monoxide, which poses a serious
health hazard. If you suspect any problems with your exhaust system have
it checked immediately by a Jacksonville AAMCO mechanic. Your
automobile’s exhaust system should be inspected periodically in any case
to maintain your automobile’s safety. Bring your automobile to the
mechanics at Jacksonville AAMCO.
Exhaust Manifold
The
exhaust manifold is responsible for routing the exhaust gases out of
the engine cylinder to the exhaust system. Exhaust manifolds and other
exhaust system components are often replaced together because of the
worn condition of all the components or because sections are welded
together.
Maintenance and automobile:
Exhaust
manifolds should be checked periodically by a Jacksonville AAMCO
mechanic to make sure mounts are secure and no cracks have developed.
Exhaust manifolds and the automobile’s entire exhaust system should be
inspected periodically to maintain your automobile’s safety. Bring your
automobile to the mechanics at Jacksonville AAMCO.
Exhaust Pipes
The
exhaust manifold is responsible for routing the exhaust gases out of
the engine cylinder to the exhaust system. Several exhaust pipes also
route the exhaust away from the engine, into the catalytic converter,
the muffler, and then out through the tail pipe. Exhaust pipes and other
exhaust system components are often replaced together because of the
worn condition of all the components or because sections are welded
together.

Exhaust pipes and the automobile’s entire exhaust system should be
inspected periodically to maintain your automobile’s safety. Bring your
automobile to the mechanics at Jacksonville AAMCO.
Catalytic Converter
The
purpose of the exhaust system is to reduce the sounds made by the
engine, reduce the temperature of the exhaust, and to control the
emissions from the automobile. The catalytic converter takes the gases
created by the combustion of the fuel and turns the gases into more
harmless emissions that do much less damage to the environment. Today’s
automobiles often have more than one catalytic converter.
Maintenance and automobile:
The
useful life of a catalytic converter depends principally on proper
maintenance of the automobile. If your automobile runs rough, there is
smoke coming from the tailpipe, or the CHECK ENGINE LIGHT appears on the
instrument panel, have your automobile checked immediately by a
Jacksonville AAMCO mechanic in order to avoid potential expensive damage
to the catalytic converter. Have your automobile’s exhaust system
inspected periodically to maintain your automobile’s safety. Bring your
automobile to the mechanics at Jacksonville AAMCO.
