EMISSION CONTROL LABELS
The vehicle manufacturer’s emission control label, also known
as the underhood tune-up label or Vehicle’s Underhood Emission Control
System (VECI) label, is located in the engine compartment. Information
regarding year model of vehicle, engine size, number of cylinders,
emission equipment or type, engine tune-up specifications, whether
vehicle was manufactured for sale in California or is a Federal
vehicle, vacuum hose routing schematic, etc., can be found on this
label. See Fig. 1.
In addition to the VECI label, some emission control
inspection and maintenance programs may require an additional label to
be affixed to the vehicle in special circumstances. For example, in
California, a Bureau Of Automotive Repair (BAR) engine label may be
affixed to the left door post. A BAR engine label is only used when
the vehicle has an engine change, approved modification or is a
Specially Constructed (SPCN) or an acceptable Gray market vehicle.
Check your state’s emission control inspection and maintenance laws to
determine if a similar label is used.
