	Ford Catalytic Converters: Improve Auto Performance & Protect the Environment w/ Ford Catalytic Converter (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		Catalytic converters are being installed in the emission systems because a vehicle as it operates emits gases with harmful elements such as hydrocarbon, carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxide.
		Most commonly, catalytic converters are found in the exhaust line between the exhaust manifold and the muffler and use chemicals that act as catalyst.
		Catalytic converters, as small as it may be, helps so much in the vehicle’s performance and in nature.

	Catalytic converter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Most commonly used in an automobile's exhaust system, catalytic converters are now commonly used on generator sets, forklifts, mining equipment, trucks, buses, trains, and other machines that have engines to provide an environment for a chemical reaction where unburned hydrocarbons are more completely combusted.
		Catalytic converters become ineffective in the presence of lead due to catalyst poisoning, and the introduction of catalytic converters triggered the end of leaded gasoline.
		Catalytic converters are used on spark ignition (gasoline; liquified petroleum gas (LPG); flexible fuel vehicles burning varying blends of E85 and gasoline; compressed natural gas (CNG)) rich burn engines; and compression ignition (diesel, lean CNG) lean burn engines.
