People are now more aware about the environment and its effect to our health. This is the reason why the EPA has set emission standards to regulate the vehicles’ emissions. In response to this, car and engine manufacturers have utilized technology to make refinements to their car and engines so that the cars will have less emission without compromising the performance of the car. One definite answer is the presence of a
catalytic converter in every Geo or any manufactured vehicle by General Motors.
The catalytic converter is a device made to clean the exhaust before it comes out of the car. The major by-products of combustion are harmless but because the process of combustion is not perfect, then a smaller amount of harmful substances are emitted too. These harmful gases are the hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides and carbon monoxide. What the catalytic converter does is transform the harmful substances into less harmful ones using two kinds of catalysts, the reduction and the oxidation catalysts. The reduction catalyst converts the nitrogen oxides to nitrogen and oxygen. The oxidation catalyst then burns out the hydrocarbons and carbon monoxides to carbon dioxide and water.
It is very important to make sure that your Geo Catalytic converter is functioning perfectly. You can check if your Geo catalytic converter is okay by the clean sound it makes when you rev up and the smell of the exhaust doesn’t smell like a rotten-egg. But if it does smell rotten and it whistles when you rev up then its time to change your catalytic converter. Our online store has a wide selection of Geo catalytic converters that are made to meet or exceed OE specifications. All you have to do is browse our easy to navigate online catalog and get the brand new catalytic converter for your Geo.
