Re: Hot exhaust
Exhaust is hot by the very nature of it on any car, CamAros not excluded. What makes you think it's running rich?

Re: Hot exhaust
I have no idea what it should be but it does sound like u may have a clogged cat. Any drop in performance lately? or rotten egg smell?

Re: Re: Hot exhaust
New Cat. Performace is good (for a V6 with simple mods).

Re: Hot exhaust
Then I dunno, if you search around you can find the temps somewhere on an old thread... I don't remember them offhand.

Being a newbe, thanks for the support. I believe I am close from other info I have researched. I still believe I'm running rich due to the computer not going inot closed loop mode after warm up (see computer contol). This could be why it seems to be a little hotter than normal.
Thanks! |
