When I first start the car and give it some gas the car sounds like a gurgling terd. Once it warms up it is much less noticeable. Sounds almost like a little marble bouncing around by the exhaust manifold with a bit of a sputtering sound. It only does it when it is in gear not when you rev the motor.
Anyone have any idea what needs to be replaced? CAT or manifold? |

I have noticed that when I had an exhaust leak too. My guess is that when the exhaust system heats up, it expands, closing the leak.
Soon though the damage will worsen. -------------------- '92 Grey Mitsubishi 3000GT SL - Sold
