Emission Control Information
To protect the environment in which we all live, Kawasaki has incorporated an exhaust emission control sys-
tem in compliance with applicable regulations of the United States Environmental Protection Agency and the
California Air Resources Board. Also, depending on when your engine was produced, it may have an assigned
emissions durability period.
*See below for the engine emissions durability period that may apply to your engine.
Exhaust Emission Control System
The exhaust emission control system applied to this engine consists of a carburetor and an ignition system
having optimum ignition timing characteristics. The carburetor has been calibrated to provide specific air/fuel
mixture characteristics and optimum fuel economy with a suitable air cleaner and exhaust system.
A sealed-type crankcase emission control system is also used to eliminate blow-by gasses. The blow-by
gasses are led to a breather chamber through the crankcase and from there to the air cleaner.
