Emission Control System (5VZ-FE): Purpose
The emission control systems are installed to reduce the amount of HC, CO and NOx exhausted from the engine (3 and 4), to prevent the atmospheric release of blow-by gas-containing HC (1) and evaporated fuel containing HC from being released from the fuel tank (2). The function of each system is shown in the table:
SYSTEM ABBREVIATION AND FUNCTION

| 1. Positive Crankcase Ventilation | PCV | Reduces HC | ||
| 2. Evaporative Emission Control | EVAP | Reduces evaporated HC | ||
| 3. Three-Way Catalytic Converter | TWC | Reduces HC, CO and NOx | ||
| 4. Sequential Multiport Fuel Injection (1) | SFI | Injects a precisely timed, optimum amount of fuel for reduced exhaust emissions | ||
