What precautions should you take when working with exhaust system parts?

What will be an ideal response?


1. Be careful around exhaust system parts. They are very hot.
2. Wear eye protection. When pounding on exhaust system parts to get them apart or put them together, rust can come off old pipe parts and get in your eye.
3. An oxyacetylene torch is often used for cutting and welding in muffler shops. MIG welding is also popular.
4. Do not run the engine without adequate ventilation. Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide.
5. If the car is to be run while on a wheel-free, frame-contact lift, be certain that the drive tires do not contact any part of the lift.
