Environmental psychology addresses environmental problems such as density and crowding, noise pollution, sub-standard living, and urban decay. 1  Noise increases environmental stress.
Hayapower is correct. The tube from the converter is for the smog pump (air injection) for the catalytic converter. The EGR tube comes off the passenger side exhaust manifold. Disconnecting the tube from the converter will not hurt if you remove the conveter and close off the tube end or leave it open.If you leave it open then at times you will hear a pumping sound from the tube caused by the smog pump when it reaches proper temperature.t's thermactor/secondary fresh air injected from the smog air pump for converter/catalyst secondary burn/conversion.. Disabling/restricting an EGR flow (drastically), can/will result in a DTC.. The tube is needed for a fresh air suppy to the converter..
While your car is in this state it can put extra wear on the catalytic converter and could cause other more expensive problems! Note: No car will pass a smog test if the Check Engine light is on. If you take your car in for a test with the Check Engine light on, you will fail. Be sure to take your car to the mechanic when the light turns on, and before taking it in for a test so you don't waste your time.
