3、C)and maintains as much commonality as possible with the original test.A similar test methodis described in the California Air Resource Board(CARB)report,“Test Method for Evaluating PortFuel Injector Deposits in Vehicle Engines.”Driveability problems in PFI automobiles were first reported in 1984.Th
4、ese driveability problemswere caused by deposits in the tips of pintle-type fuel injectors.In response to this problem,the CRCdeveloped a program to evaluate a method of testing PFI deposit-forming tendencies in gasolines.D235-h test cycle consisting of 15 min of operation at 88 kph(55 mph)followed
5、by a 45 min soakperiod was used for the program.This test cycle showed statistically significant differences indeposit-forming tendencies of the test fuels on the vehicles fuel injectors.The results of the CRCprogram are discussed in CRC Report No.565,2and SAE Paper 890213.31.Scope*1.1 This test met
