Exhaust Emission Control System
The PGM-FI system has four subsystems: Air Intake, Engine Control, Fuel
Control, and Exhaust Control.
The Engine Control Module (ECM) uses various sensors to determine how
much air is going into the engine. It then controls how much fuel is injected
under all operating conditions.
The system constantly adjusts the ignition timing, reducing the amount of HC,
CO and NOx produced.
The secondary air injection system introduces filtered air into the exhaust gases
in the exhaust port. The secondary air injection system helps improve emission
control performance.
The combustion process produces carbon monoxide (CO), oxides of nitrogen
(NOx) and hydrocarbons (HC). Control of hydrocarbons and oxides of nitrogen
is very important because, under certain conditions, they react to form
photochemical smog when subjected to sunlight. Carbon monoxide does not
react in the same way, but it is toxic.
Honda Motor Co., Ltd. utilizes various systems to reduce carbon monoxide,
oxides of nitrogen and hydrocarbons.
The two three-way catalytic converters are in the exhaust system. Through
chemical reactions, they convert HC, CO, and NOx in the engine’s exhaust to
carbon dioxide (CO ), nitrogen (N), and water vapor.
The exhaust emission control system includes a secondary air injection system,
PGM-FI system, two warm-up oxidation catalytic converters, two three-way
catalytic converters, and two heated oxygen sensors.
No adjustment to these systems should be made although periodic inspection of
the components is recommended.
