Abstract

Specifies test procedures and performance requirements for evaluating claims that a device, additive or process can improve the performance of a spark ignition engine system.

Scope

This Standard specifies test procedures and performance requirements for evaluating claims that a device, additive or process can improve the performance of a spark ignition engine system.
This Standard is applicable to all M and N category spark ignition engine motor vehicles with a GVM less than or equal to 3.5tonnes, as defined in the Australian Design Rules (ADRs).
