Since your exhaust system is responsible for converting your engine’s harmful gases into less harmful gases, it is vital that the emissions travel through the entire exhaust system to be fully effective. The exhaust manifold is the first part of your exhaust system; so, if the manifold is damaged or has a leak, then your vehicle will be releasing harmful substances into the atmosphere. A damaged manifold will also prohibit your vehicle from passing safety and emissions tests.
