Exhaust System: Description and Operation






DIESEL ENGINE




6.7L DIESEL- CAB CHASSIS





CAUTION: Avoid application of rust prevention compounds or undercoating materials to exhaust system floor pan exhaust heat shields. Light over spray near the edges is permitted. Application of coating will result in excessive floor pan temperatures and objectionable fumes.





EXHAUST SYSTEM - 6.7L DIESEL - P/U





The diesel engine exhaust system consists of:

- Exhaust Manifold
- Turbocharger
- Exhaust pipe
- Catalytic Converter
- Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC)/Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) Assembly (Cab Chassis)
- Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC) (P/U)
- NOx Absorber Catalyst (NAC) (P/U)
- Muffler
- Tailpipe

The exhaust system must be properly aligned to prevent stress, leakage and body contact. The exhaust components should be kept a minimum of 25.4 mm (1.0 in.) away from the body and frame. If the system contacts any body panel, it may amplify objectionable noises from the engine or body.
