Mazda as per federal law equip every Mazda vehicle with a
Mazda catalytic converter, for starters.
The catalytic converter is a device that treats the exhaust before it comes out and ensures that the harmful by-products of combustion come out less harmful. Toxic substances like hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides and carbon monoxide undergoes reduction and oxidation transforming them to benign substances water, carbon dioxide, nitrogen and oxygen. The reduction catalyst and oxidation catalyst are made up of the precious metals platinum and rhodium combination and platinum and palladium combination, respectively. The oxygen sensor which is also an integral part of the exhaust system make sure there is enough oxygen in the exhaust to allow oxidation catalyst to burn unburned hydrocarbons and CO tells how much oxygen is in the exhaust so the computer can adjust the air-to-fuel ratio.
Like any other auto part, your Mazda catalytic converter can become defective or clogged. This would then start emitting a rotten- egg odor and a whistling noise when revving up. It would no longer function perfectly so you will be emitting toxic substances and you would have increased fuel consumption. This is an additional problem that can actually be taken care of in a few minutes. Visit our online store and get yourself a new Mazda catalytic converter.
