GENERAL INFORMATION
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Warning - Basic Information
All Makes amd Models
* PLEASE READ THIS FIRST *
NOTE: This article is intended for general information purposes
only.
INTRODUCTION
All Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) sensitive components
contain solid state circuits (transistors, diodes, semiconductors)
that may become damaged when contacted with an electrostatic charge.
The following information applies to all ESD sensitive devices. The
ESD symbol shown in Fig. 1 may be used on schematics to indicate which
components are ESD sensitive. See Fig. 1. Although different
manufactures may display different symbols to represent ESD sensitive
devices, the handling and measuring precautions and procedures are the
same.
Fig. 1: Sample ESD Symbol
HANDLING STATIC-SENSITIVE CIRCUITS/DEVICES
Page 406 of 1333
When handling an electronic part that is ESD sensitive, the
technician should follow these guidelines to reduce any possible
electrostatic charge build-up on the technician's body and the
electronic part.
1) Always touch a known good ground source before handling
the part. This should be repeated while handling the part and more
frequently after sitting down from a standing position, sliding across
the seat or walking a distance.
2) Avoid touching electrical terminals of the part, unless
instructed by a diagnostic procedure.
3) DO NOT open the package of a new part until it is time to
install the part.
4) Before removing the part from its package, ground the
package to a known good ground source.
CHECKING STATIC-SENSITIVE CIRCUITS/DEVICES
1) Solid State circuits in electronic devices are shown
greatly simplified in schematics. See Fig. 2. Due to the
simplification of the electronic devices on the schematic, resistance
measurements could be misleading or could lead to an electrostatic
discharge. Always follow the recommended diagnostic procedure.
Fig. 2: Sample Schematic Showing Typical ESD Sensitive Device
2) Only measure resistance at the terminals of the devices
when instructed by the recommended diagnostic procedure.
3) When using a voltmeter, be sure to connect the ground lead
first.

1983-98 GENERAL INFORMATION
Emission Control Visual Inspection Procedures
All Models
* PLEASE READ THIS FIRST *
This article is provided for general information only. Not
all information applies to all makes and models. For more complete
information, see appropriate article(s) in the ENGINE PERFORMANCE
Section.
EMISSION CONTROL LABELS
The vehicle manufacturer's emission control label, also known
as the underhood tune-up label or Vehicle's Underhood Emission Control
System (VECI) label, is located in the engine compartment. Information\
regarding year model of vehicle, engine size, number of cylinders,
emission equipment or type, engine tune-up specifications, whether
vehicle was manufactured for sale in California or is a Federal
vehicle, vacuum hose routing schematic, etc., can be found on this
label. See Fig. 1.
In addition to the VECI label, some emission control
inspection and maintenance programs may require an additional label to
be affixed to the vehicle in special circumstances. For example, in
California, a Bureau Of Automotive Repair (BAR) engine label may be
affixed to the left door post. A BAR engine label is only used when
the vehicle has an engine change, approved modification or is a
Specially Constructed (SPCN) or an acceptable Gray market vehicle.
Check your state's emission control inspection and maintenance laws to
determine if a similar label is used.

EMISSION CONTROL VISUAL INSPECTION
* PLEASE READ THIS FIRST *
NOTE: The following emission control visual inspection procedures
should be used as a guide only. When performing a visual
inspection, always follow your state's recommended
Page 410 of 1333
inspection procedures.
A visual inspection is made to determine if any required
emission control devices are missing, modified or disconnected.
Missing, modified or disconnected systems must be made fully
operational before a vehicle can be certified.
POSITIVE CRANKCASE VENTILATION (PCV)
PCV controls the flow of crankcase fumes into the intake
manifold while preventing gases and flames from traveling in the
opposite direction. PCV is either an open or closed system. See Fig. 2
.
Ensure PCV system is installed as required. Verify valve,
required hoses, connections, flame arresters, etc., are present,
routed properly and in serviceable condition.
Fig. 2: Typical Open & Closed Type PCV System
THERMOSTATIC AIR CLEANER (TAC)
The TAC supplies warm air to air intake during cold engine
operation. This system is active during cold engine warm-up only.
Under all other operating conditions, air cleaner function is the same
as any non-thermostatic unit.
Ensure required exhaust shroud, hot air duct, vacuum hoses
and air cleaner components are present and installed properly. See
Fig. 3 . Ensure any required thermostatic vacuum switches are in place
and vacuum hoses are installed and in serviceable condition. Also
ensure air cleaner lid is installed right side up. Check for oversized
air filter elements and for additional holes in the air cleaner
housing.
