The composition of exhaust emissions is influenced not only
by the special emission control equipment, but also by various
engine components and their adjustments.
Therefore, emission system maintenance must include these
engine components. Some maintenance jobs are actually only
tests. They are important however, because they allow early
detection of discrepancies which can later lead to increased
exhaust emissions. It is generally less expensive to have such
items adjusted immediately rather than allowing them to con-
tribute to costly repairs. The maintenance intervals have been
determined so that the vehicle, under normal conditions,
should operate properly between services.
