This engine is certified to comply with U.S. EPA and California ARB
emission regulations using the Impco Beam regulator specified in the
installation instructions (see below). Honda used this regulator and
other specific parts and adjustments to demonstrate compliance with
the emission regulations. Adjustable fuel system parts must have
U.S. EPA and California ARB approved tamper resistant features to
limit the available adjustment after the fuel system is correctly
installed. If an equipment manufacturer did not install your engine in a
product you will need the installation instructions for the Honda
certified system (see below). If you choose not to use the Honda fuel
system you must use a system that has been certified by the fuel
system manufacturer to be used on this Honda engine. Or if you use
a fuel system that is not already certified you must have certification
test data satisfactory to the U.S. EPA or the California ARB. The test
data must prove that the system will meet the emission standard both
when the engine is new and at the end of its emission durability
period (250 hours).
To obtain a copy of the installation instructions for this engine, contact
an independent Honda engine distributor, or our Customer Service
Department (page 12).
