Summary table showing emission level tolerances
| CO (%) | HC (p.p.m.) | CO2 (%) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Upstream of converter | 0,4 - 1 | ≤600 | ≥ 12 |
| Downstream of converter | ≤0.35 | ≤90 | ≥ 13 |
Checking CO and HC levels at exhaust
Measure carbon monoxide (CO) and uncombusted hydrocarbon (HC) at the exhasut by inserting the probe of a calibrated tester into the end of the exhauast pipe by at least 30 cm as indicated in the figure.
If the shape of the exhaust tail pipe will not allow the probe to be fitted fully, add an extension pipe and ensure the joint area is well sealed.
- Check that idling CO and HC levels are as specified (see table).
- If the HC level is not as specified whereas level measured upstream of converter is correct, engine parameters should be considered correct and the cause of the anomaly must lie in reduced converter efficiency.
TESTING FUEL FEED CIRCUIT PRESSURE
Check 1: check fuel regulation pressure as follows:
- Disconnect the pipe (arrowed in figure A) from the filter from the injector fuel manifold supply end.
- Interpose pressure gauge 1895890000 between the disconnected pipe end and the injector fuel manifold as shown in figure B.
