(a) Start and warm up the engine.
(b) Run the engine at 2,500 rpm for approximately 180 seconds.
(c) Insert the CO/HC meter testing probe at least 40 cm (1.3 ft.) into the tailpipe while idling.
(d) Inspect the CO/HC concentration while idling and/or at 2,500 rpm.
If the CO/HC concentration is not as specified, perform troubleshooting in the order given below.
(1) See the table for possible causes, and then inspect and repair the applicable causes if necessary.
