PURPOSE
The emission control systems are installed to reduce the amount of HC, CO and NOx exhausted from the engine ((3) and (4)), to prevent the atmospheric release of blow-by gas-containing HC (1) and evaporated fuel containing HC being released from the fuel tank (2).
The function of each system is shown in these table:
System |
Abbreviation |
Function |
(1) Positive Crankcase Ventilation (2) Evaporative Emission Control (3) Three-Way Catalytic Converter (4) Sequential Multiport Fuel Injection* | PCV EVAP TWC SFI | Reduces HC Reduces evaporated HC Reduces HC, CO and NOx Injects a precisely timed, optimum amount of fuel for reduced exhaust emissions |
Remark: * For inspection and repair of the SFI system, refer to the SF section in this manual.
