(a) This subpart describes the procedures to follow in order to perform exhaust emission tests on new nonroad spark-ignition engines and vehicles subject to the provisions of subpart A of part 90. Provisions specific to raw gas sampling are in Sec. 90.414 through Sec. 90.419, provisions specific to constant volume sampling are in Sec. 90.420 through Sec. 90.426. All other sections in this subpart apply to both raw gas sampling and constant volume sampling except where indicated otherwise.
(b) Requirements for emission test equipment and calibrating this equipment are found in subpart D of this part.
(c) Certain text in this subpart is identified as pertaining to Phase 1 or Phase 2 engines. Such text pertains only to engines of the specified Phase. If no indication of Phase is given, the text pertains to all engines, regardless of Phase.
(d) For Phase 2 Class I, Phase 2 Class I-B, and Phase 2 Class II natural gas fueled engines, use the equipment specified in 40 CFR part 1065, subparts D and E, to measure nonmethane hydrocarbon (NMHC) exhaust emissions from Phase 2 Class I, Phase 2 Class I-B, and Phase 2 Class II natural gas fueled engines.
