catalytic converter guide?

Zodiac69 864 2 March 2005 05:13:08
 I manage a new emissions testing station and I'm about to get an influx of
new employees who know little or nothing about cars. One of the tests we do
is a visual check for a catalytic converter. My question: does anyone out
there know of a guide that details possible locations for a catalytc
converter by make, model, etc? We have one for the OBD port but not for the
catalytic converters. If I could find something for the lane inspectors to
reference if they can't find the cat, it would save both me and the
customers a lot of trouble.

Shouldn't be necessary, really, the cat will always be fairly close to the > engine due to the need for fast light-off.

It shouldn't, but some of them can be under the hood, on various sides of
the vehicle, etc as opposed to the normal place and for someone just
starting out, it can be difficult to find depending on the model. I'm just
worried about inexperienced inspectors passing a car that should fail and/or
failing a car that should pass.

Then it is your job to train them.
