Emission Gontrol System
System Description
The emission control system includes a Three Way Cata-lytic Convener (TWC), Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR)
system,. Positive Crankcase Ventilation (pCV) system andEvaporative Emission (EVAP) Control system. The emis-sion control system is designed to meet federal and stateemission standards.*: D16Y5 engine
Tailpipe Emission
Inspestion
@@ Do not smoke during ihis procedure. Keepany open flame away from your work area.
1. Start the engine. Hold the engine at 3,000 rpm withno load (in Park or neutral) until the radiator fancomes on. then let it idle.
2. Connect a tachometer.
Check and, if necessary, adjust the idle speed (see
page 11-220 - 223).
Warm up and calibrate the CO meter according to themeter manufacturer's instructions.
Check idle CO with the headlights, heater blower,rear window defogger, cooling fan, and air condition-er off.
NOTE: (Canada) Pull the parking brake lever up.Start the engine, then check that the headlights areoff.
CO mete. should indicate 0.1% maximum.
NOTE: '98 Dl6Y5 engine - lf the idle speed incress-es to 8101 50 rpm, this means the EVAp system ispurging the canister. To stop the purging temporari-ly. raise the engine speed above 1,000 rpm with theaccelerator pedal, then slowly release the pedal.

Doscription
The Three Way Catalytic Converter (TWC) is used toconven hydrocarbons (HC), carbon monoxide (CO), andoxides of nitrogen (NOx) in the exhaust gas to carbondioxide (COr), dinitrogen (N,) and water vapor.
