Three Way Catalytic Converter A three way catalytic converter is installed in the exhaust system to help clean-up the harmful exhaust gases that can cause air pollution. To be effective, the three way catalytic converter must work at high temperature, so don't park your car over dry grass, leaves or anything else that could burn easily. To stay effective, the three way catalytic converter must not be contaminated by leaded gasoline; use only unleaded gasoline as explained on page 92 . THREE WAY CATALYTIC CONVERTER CAUTION: The three way catalytic converter can be overheated and damaged if it's fed too much unburned fuel mixture from the engine, so: - Don't push or tow the car to start it; if the battery is dead, jump start the car as shown on page 154. - Don't turn the key off while the engine is running above idle speed. - Don't change the ignition timing, or remove any emission control parts. - Use only the spark plugs specified in this manual. - Don't keep driving your car if it isn't running properly, or if its CHARGING system light comes on; have it checked by your Honda dealer.
