SECTION 6E1 - EMISSION CONTROL

- V6 ENGINE

IMPORTANT:

Before performing any Service Operation or other procedure described in this Section, refer to Section

00 CAUTIONS AND NOTES for correct workshop practices with regard to safety and/or property damage.

1. GENERAL I NFORMATI O N

All information relating to the emission control system for VU Series Models carries over from the information

published for VX Series Models noting the following:

• Canister vent hose routing for utility models differs from that of sedan models.

• To provide a more even distr ibution of c rankcas e gases ther e have been minor changes m ade to the upper and

lower inlet manifolds; a Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) channel has been cast into the manifolds which

direct PCV gases from the far right hand corner to the centre, just behind the throttle body.

Neither of these changes have an effect on the operation or the service procedures, however, reference to the

latest spare parts information (Partfinder) should be made before replacing components.

For information relating to the Emission Control System used on VU Series Models with V6 engine not covered in

this section, refer to Section 6E1 EMISSION CONTROL - V6 ENGINE in the VX Series Service Information in

conjunction with Section 6E1 EMISSION CONTROL – V6 ENGINE in the VT Series I and VT Series II Service

Information.
