While properly engineered conversion systems can reduce or at least not increase emissions, poorly designed systems can lead to much more pollution. The revised procedures will vary based on the age of the vehicle or engine being converted. Exhaust, Evap, and OBD testing. MY >= current calendar year - 1. Intermediate age.

The new options would reduce some economic and procedural impediments to clean alternative fuel conversions while maintaining environmental safeguards to ensure that acceptable emission levels from converted vehicles are sustained. EPA expects the streamlined approach to result in a cost savings for many converters. Intermediate age.

However, SIDI engines also have the potential for increased pollutant formation, and require either careful control of combustion for reduced engine-out emissions, or an exhaust after-treatment systems similar to those under development for diesel vehicles.

The original 1975 standards applied to hydrocarbons (HC), one of the two most important contributors to smog, and carbon monoxide (CO), a toxic air pollutant. Tampering, according to ARB, would include removal of the catalytic converter or carbon canister, changing adjustable parameters or adding devices to boost horsepower.
