Chapter Overview This chapter covers all the recent advances in intake

and exhaust systems. Among these are thermostatic air cleaners, catalytic converters, turbochargers, and superchargers. There is some attention given to inspection and replacement of various components.

5

Chapter Objectives Explain the operation of the components in the

air induction system, including ductwork, air cleaner/filters, and intake manifolds.

Describe how the engine creates vacuum and how vacuum is used to operate and control many automotive devices.

Inspect and troubleshoot vacuum and air induction systems.

6

Explain the operation of exhaust system components, including exhaust manifold, gaskets, exhaust pipe and seal, catalytic converter, muffler, resonator, tailpipe and clamps, brackets, and hangers.

Properly perform an exhaust system inspection, and service and replace exhaust system components.

Explain the purpose and operation of a turbocharger.

7

Inspect a turbocharger, and describe some common turbocharger problems.

Explain supercharger operation, and identify common supercharger problems.
