These tests check the operation of this computer, as well as measure the levels of pollutants like hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, oxygen, and oxides of nitrogen. These pollutants are found in vehicle exhaust, and emissions testing determines whether your car is exceeding the legal levels of these pollutants.
