Exhaust & Fuel System
Your exhaust system handles emissions, noise, and back-pressure - and your fuel system is responsible for getting the right amount of fuel to the engine at the right time. When either one has issues, you'll notice it in drivability, fuel economy, and sometimes that unmistakable rotten-egg smell. We handle everything from muffler work to fuel pump replacements.
What We Offer
Here's what falls under exhaust & fuel at ANR.
How Every Job Goes
No surprises. No hidden charges. Here's the playbook.
Inspect & Diagnose
We visually inspect the exhaust system on the lift, check for leaks with a smoke test if needed, scan for emissions codes, and test fuel system pressure and volume. We identify the actual failed component, not just the symptom.
Explain & Quote
We'll show you what's corroded, cracked, or failed and give you options. Sometimes a section repair makes sense; other times a larger replacement is the smarter long-term move. We'll lay out the options honestly.
Repair & Replace
Whether it's welding in a new exhaust section, replacing a catalytic converter, or swapping a fuel pump, we do the job with proper parts and procedures. Exhaust connections get anti-seize so the next guy (or us) can service it later.
Verify & Test
We check for exhaust leaks, verify fuel pressure, clear codes, and road test to confirm everything is running right. If it's an emissions-related repair, we make sure the monitors are ready to pass.

Lean operation. No showroom overhead. Same quality - you just don't pay for the fancy waiting room.
Common Questions
Catalytic converters aren't cheap - the parts alone can run $300-$1,500+ depending on your vehicle and whether it needs a direct-fit or universal unit. With our labor rate of $120/hr and typically 1-3 hours of work, total cost usually lands between $500 and $2,000.
We can handle exhaust modifications and repairs, including welding in new sections and fitting aftermarket components. If you're looking for a full custom performance exhaust build from scratch, we can discuss what's involved for your specific vehicle.
Oxygen sensors monitor exhaust gas composition and tell the ECU how to adjust fuel mixture. A failing sensor causes poor fuel economy and increased emissions. Sometimes it's the sensor itself; sometimes it's an exhaust leak upstream causing a false reading. We'll test it properly.
Common signs are hard starting, hesitation under load, the engine dying at highway speed then restarting after sitting, or a whining noise from the fuel tank. We can test fuel pressure and volume to confirm before recommending replacement.
Not really. Exhaust leaks before the catalytic converter release carbon monoxide, which is odorless and dangerous - especially in cold weather when windows are up. An exhaust leak also throws off oxygen sensor readings and can trigger check engine lights. Get it fixed sooner than later.
