Emissions Certified Engine Systems

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the California Air Resources Board (CARB) have both adopted and implemented regulations which govern the control of exhaust emissions from Large Spark Ignited (LSI) engines (engines greater than 25 hp). Both regulations come into effect on January 1, 2004 and require that Engine Manufacturers make available LSI emission compliant engines in order that Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) can comply with these regulations.

The regulations, which specifically identify tailpipe emissions, apply to Gasoline and Liquid Propane Gas (LPG) powered engines call for longer warranty periods to ensure long term compliance with emissions standards to and to protect the end users.

To certify an engine to meet the LSI regulations, the Engine Manufacturer or the Equipment OEM must demonstrate that the engine has successfully passed stringent third party testing to ensure compliance with the emissions guidelines. 

Upon successful completion of the testing process a submission for certification is filed which includes the following:

bulletTest data and results
bulletOEM Part Numbers
bulletRecommended Maintenance 
bulletService or Repair Manuals
bulletParts Manuals
bulletEnd User Warranty Statement
bulletRecall and Campaign Processes
bulletWarranty Reporting Process
bulletRecord Retention Process

A successful application is granted Executive Order Numbers from both agencies which identify the engine as part of a Certified Engine Family. The Engine Manufacturer will then be required to place an Engine Emission Label on the engine that clearly identifies the engine. IMPCO has received Executive Orders covering the 3.0L and 4.3L engines.
