Subject: Cleaned out converter and still rattles?
IP: Logged

Message:
I recently cleaned out the converter and it still rattles because the air flow now has to go around the innerds of the converter. The sound is like rough wind through a hollow pipe and is sort of gets bothersome. Any suggestions on how to muffle it.

Take it off the truck cut a hole in the top and
remove all the crap you left behind, than weld the
hole shut and put it back on.

Wind through a hollow pipe, I hope so all the
pipes are hollow. LOL

Put a muffler behind it
