The

catalytic

accelerates

the

chemical
reaction
of

He
and

carbon

in

the
exhaust

gas
and

changes
them
into

non

This

process
requires

is

supplied
by

OPERATION

Exhaust

emitted

from
the
en

gine
contains

some
harmful
substances

due
to

incomplete
combustion
in

the

combustion
chamber
The
air

injection

stem
i

designed
to
reduce
the

con

tent
of

such
substances
in

the
exhaust

gas
In
this

system
the

secondary
air

is

led
from
the
ch
ck
valve
and

injected

in
o
the

exhaust
manifold
With
this

injection
of

the

secondary
air

hydro

carbons

He
and
carbon
monoxide

CO
in
the

exhaust

gas
are
gradually

oxidized
with

oxygen

in
the

secondary

and
converted
into

C02
and

water

The

catalytic

gas
Through

catalytic
action
it

changes
residual

hydrocarbons
and

carbon

contained
in

exhaust

gas
into
