Guys,
I'm having trouble understanding where, how and what a heat exchanger does.
This is what I understand:
Engine cylinders connected to exhaust manifold via 3-1 branch pipe
Manifold goes into muffler box
Exhaust comes out of muffler and out of tail pipe
Now, I'm guessing that the H/E goes somewhere between the cylinders and the 3 branch manifold? and takes heat from the engine for the car heater?
If anyone has any simple diagrams or photos I'd be grateful, or can draw a basic flow diagram and pm or em, or post,
Have attached a photo that shows the exhaust, but still can't figure out the H/E, (not my photo or car,) photo courtesy of Fabspeed, thanks
as always, thanks in advance
