Which of the following statements regarding the “Pre-Emission Inspection Check” Of a diesel powered vehicle that is subject to Opacity (Smoke Meter) testing is not true?
The governor (if equipped), the exhaust system, and the emissions control devices must all be checked.
The exhaust system must be checked for any missing sections which would prevent collection of a valid exhaust sample.
Vehicles not meeting requirements cannot be inspected. This is not considered an inspection or rejection and no fee is to be charged.
The governor, if originally equipped, must be checked for presence, connection, and operation.
Excessive oxygen in the exhaust indicates an improper air/fuel mixture.
True
False
Technician A says that the PCM illuminates the mil if a defective causes emission levels to exceed 2.5 times the emission standards for that model year vehicle. Technician B says that if a misfire condition threatens engine or catalyst damage, the PCM flashes the mil. Who is correct
