Answering "What emissions control device on a car lowers carbon monoxide content?"
A catalytic converter is attached to the car's exhaust system to reduce emissions.
The Catalytic Converter is an emissions control device on your car and can be disabled (illegally). Your car will still have power if it is broken/disabled but will fail emissions.
The same as in any car.
No. The muffler is a passive component in the exhaust emissions system.
EGR stands for exhaust gas recirculation and refers to the valve which acts as the main emissions control in a car. It helps the car burn fuel efficiently.
If a car engine stalls when turning, there could be a problem with the power steering pump. There could also be an issue with an emissions control device.
There is no such thing on this car.

You're probably thinking of the Catalytic converter, which is in the exhaust system and looks like a canister usually under the car around the front seats, but there are many systems imposed on vehicles to reduce emissions, such as an exhaust gas recirculation valve which takes some of the hot air from the exhaust and runs it through the engine again.
The catalytic converter.
EGR stands for Exhaust Gas Recirculation. It is an emissions control that recylces exhaust gas through the engine to clean out any left over fuel, and to cool the combustion chambers to help lower Nox emissions. Nox is best known as "smog". It is illegal to disable or modify any emissions control on your car. EGR problems generally cause rough idle and sometimes, hard starting.
