Six Non-Visible Signals Warn Driver
There's Malfunction That Needs
Correction to Keep Air Clean
"Where there's smoke, there's fire," goes the old saying.
The same formula doesn't necessarily apply to air pollu-
tion. Just because there's no visible sign of pollution coming
from your ear's exhaust pipe, it may not mean your car isn't
polluting excessively.
Visible exhaust smoke generally appears when the engine
is malfunctioning. Burning oil in the engine or an excess of
unburned gasoline helps create the exhaust smoke.
These are obvious, signs that your car is polluting.
However, there are times when an oversupply of unburned
hydrocarbons, carbon mon-
oxide and nitrogen oxides following should be checked
cannot be seen. If this is the at your favorite service out-
case, how can you tell when let:
your car is polluting? * * *

These conditions mainly

Take the case of a mis-

cent rate of misfire can in-
crease unburned hydrocar-
bon emissions by 300 percent.
Consider a clogged PCV
valve or dirty air cleaner.
These can almost double the
pollutants from your engine.
In addition, a University of
Michigan engineering school
study showed that emissions
of unburned hydrocarbons
were reduced an average of
55 percent following tune-
ups.

Cars of today are 60 per-

still be needed to keep them
that way.
