Kia Optima: Precautions For Catalytic Converter
|
If a large amount of unburned gasoline flows 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 only unleaded gasoline. |
|
2. |
Do not run the engine while
the car is at rest for a long time. Avoid running the engine at fast idle
for more than 10 minutes and idle speed for more than 20 minutes. |
|
3. |
Do not measure engine compression
for an extended time. Engine compression tests must be made as rapidly as
possible. Remove the fuel pump relay before performing a compression test. |
|
4. |
Do not dispose of used
catalytic converter together with parts contaminated with gasoline or oil. |
