Abstract
A test program was run to investigate the effects of gasohol on CO and HC emissions on an I/M idle test. Three vehicles were set up to operate on either gasoline or gasohol. A Hamilton emissions analyzer was used to measure tailpipe emissions. CO emissions were varied in each of the cars by adjusting the idle mixture screw, and HC emissions were varied by inducing a misfire with a misfire generator. At each CO and HC value as specified in the program, the fuel was switched from gasoline to gasohol while its effect was noted on tailpipe emissions. The data obtained provided a basis for determining gasohol's ability to reduce CO and HC emissions for an idle test.
