Exhaust question

[Yoder, Doug]

In theory, if the exhaust system were plugged up enough (say, by a bad
cat...), could it prevent the engine from running?

I ask, because that's what I think, but want confirmation as I am not
very familiar with the theory of cars... I know how to take things
apart, but I have never had someone to learn from for diagnosis/etc...

TIA,
-Doug
