In the mid-70’s Congress passed the Clean Air Act, and ever since then cars, vans, and other passenger vehicles have been required to be equipped with at least one catalytic converter. The Ford Windstar Catalytic Converter looks something like a muffler, and is part of the exhaust system, but unlike a muffler it is not designed to reduce noise. The catalytic converter is usually installed in front of the muffler closer to the front rather then the rear of the vehicle.

The purpose of the catalytic converter is to reduce the output of harmful gases that are part of your vehicles exhaust emissions. When catalytic converters were first put into vehicles many drivers complained that they reduced power.

Today’s modern catalytic converter does not reduce horsepower, and in fact we carry a high performance catalytic converter that can actually improve horsepower and fuel economy. If you are in the market for a replacement or an upgraded catalytic converter, you have come to the right place. We are fast becoming the only place to search for auto parts on-line and we carry an extensive line of Catalytic Converters and custom performance exhaust systems. What exactly does a Ford Windstar Catalytic Converter do? And how will you know if you need a new one? A catalytic converter uses a chemical reaction, or a catalyst to transform poisonous gases like carbon monoxide in your cars exhaust into more harmless gases like carbon dioxide, nitrogen, oxygen, and water vapor. The first indication that it may be time for a new Ford Windstar Catalytic Converter is a hesitation upon acceleration and a rotten egg smell. Also, many times when the CHECK ENGINE dash light comes on it is because of a problem with the catalytic converter.
