AUTO EMISSIONS EXPLAINED
CAR403 Video Series
This video series consists of 4 video programs (CAR404-CAR407)
WHAT ARE EMISSIONS?
CAR404 Video
Explains the differences between carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, and
oxides of nitrogen. Describes photochemical smog and how it is formed. Describes
auto pollution and how it affects the environment. Introduces temperature air
inversions. 19 mins.
MECHANICAL EMISSION CONTROLS
CAR405 Video
Describes the precombustion and postcombustion approaches to emission controls.
Explains valve timing and its effect on emissions. Introduces positive crankcase
ventilation (PCV), evaporative emission controls (EECS), exhaust gas
recirculation (EGR), air reaction (AIR), and catalytic converters. 20mins.
ELECTRONIC EMISSION CONTROLS
CAR406 Video
Describes the integration of electronic controls to emission systems. Details
the role of the computer as an emissions control center. Describes the operation
of the oxygen sensor. Explains speed density vs. mass air flow sensing of
incoming air. Introduces electronic ignition timing controls and open and closed
loop operation. 18mins.
TROUBLESHOOTING EMISSION CONTROLS
DEVICES
CAR407 Video
Introduces the detection and diagnosis of system malfunctions. Shows how to
identify electronic vs. mechanical problems. Demonstrates how to check the PCV
and EECS systems. Shows how to look for degraded, contaminated, and defective
oxygen sensors. Demonstrates EGR and catalytic converter checks. 17 mins.

AUTOMOTIVE MEASUREMENT
Video
Examines how to use the precision measuring tools essential to auto mechanics.
Demonstrates the use of micrometers, dial indicators, feeler gauges,
plastigauges, dial bore gauges, straight edges, and other tools essential to the
trade, while showing actual auto part measurements. 33 minutes.

USING A LOAD TESTER
Video
Through the use of 3D animation and live action, this video shows how to use
typical load testers. Battery, alternator, starter, and other tests are
demonstrated on both analog and digital load testers. The animation shows what
is happening inside the tester and circuit during each test. 25 minutes
