Emission Gontrol System
System Description
Three Way Catalytic Converter (TWCI
\
t
The emission control system includes a Three Way
Catalytic Converter (TWC), Positive Crankcase Ventilation
(PCV) system and Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Control
system. The emission control system is designed to meet
tederal and state emission standards.
InsDeciion
!@@ Do not smoke during this procedure. Keep
any open llame away from your work area.
1. Start the engine. Hold the engine at 3,000 rpm with
no load {in Park or neutral) until the radiator fan
comes on, then let it idle.
2. Connect a tachometer.
Check and adjust the idle speed, if necessary (see
page '11-11 ! ).
Warm up and calibrate the CO meter according to the
meter manufacturer's instructions.
Check idle CO with rhe headlights, heater blower,
rear window defogger, cooling fan, and air condition-
er off.
NOTE: {Canada) Pull the parking brake lever up.
Start the engine, then check that the headlights are
olf.
CO meter should indicste 0.17o maximum.
DescriDtion
The Three Way Catalytic Converter {TWC) is used to convert hydrocarbons (HC), carbon monoxide (CO), and oxides of
nitrogen (NOx) in the exhaust gas, to carbon dioxide (COr), dinitrogen {Nr) and water vapor.

lT042O I Th" """n tool indicates Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P0420: catatyst system efficiency below threshold.
Descriotion
This system evaluates the catalyst's capacity by means of the HO2S (Primary and Secondary) output during stable drivingconditions. lf deterioration has been detected during three consecutive driving cycles, the MIL comes on and DTC p0420 willbe stored.
NOTE: lf some of the DTCS listed below are stored at the same time as DTC PO42O. troubleshoot those DTCS tirst. thentroubleshoot DTC P0420.

Possible Cause
. TWC Deterioration
. Exhaust system leakage
Troubleshooting Flowchart
Problem verification:1. Do the ECM Reset Procedure.2. Start the engine. Hold theengine at 3,000 rpm with noload (in Park or neutral) untilthe radiator fan comes on,3. Connect the SCS service con,
4. Test drive 40 - 55 mph (64 -
88 km/h) for approx. two min-utes, Then decelerate Ior atleast 3 seconds with the throttle completely closed. Thenreduce the vehicle speed to35 mph (56 km/h), and try tohold it until the readinesscode comes on.
