These are examples of other parts of your vehicle which have a primary purpose other than emissions
control but which nevertheless have significant effects on your vehicle’s emissions. If any
of these parts fail to function or function improperly, your vehicle’s emissions may exceed federal
standards. Therefore, when any of the parts of the following systems are defective in materials or
workmanship and have failed in a way that would be likely to cause your vehicle’s emissions to
exceed federal standards, they should be repaired or replaced under the emissions warranty:
1. Exhaust Gas Conversion Systems: oxygen sensor, thermal reactor, catalytic converter,
dual-walled exhaust pipe
2. Exhaust Gas Recirculation System: EGR valve, thermal vacuum switch, EGR solenoid,
EGR spacer plate, EGR backpressure transducer, sensor and switches use to control EGR
flow
3. Evaporative Emission Control System: purge valve, fuel filler cap, purge solenoid, vapor
storage canister and filter
4. Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) System: PCV valve, PCV solenoid
5. Air Injection System: Air pump, diverter, bypass, or gulp valve, reed valve, anti-backfire
or deceleration valve

7. Fuel Metering System: electronic control module (unit) or EFI air flow meter, computer
command module or mixture control unit, deceleration controls, electronic choke, fuel
injectors, fuel injection units and fuel altitude compensator sensor, bars or rails for EFI
or TBI systems, mixture settings on sealed fuel mixture control solenoid, diaphragm or
other systems, fuel metering components that achieve closed/other feedback control
sensors/loop operation switches and valves
8. Air Induction System: thermostatically controlled air cleaner, air box
9. Ignition Systems: electronic spark advance timing advance/retard systems, high energy
electronic ignition
10. Miscellaneous Parts: hoses, gaskets, brackets, clamps and other accessories used in the
above systems
1. Fuel Injection System: fuel distributor
2. Air Induction System: turbocharger, intake manifold
3. Exhaust System: exhaust manifold
4. Ignition System: distributor, spark plugs, ignition wires and coil
