	Senate votes to study halt of tailpipe tests
		The state Senate has unanimously voted to review whether tailpipe emissions tests that are a main component of air pollution control programs in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia should be discontinued.
		Even if the review concludes an alternative to tailpipe tests is available and the federal government concurs, no changes will occur before the end of March 2002 at the earliest.
		LaValle and other senators representing metropolitan Pittsburgh and Philadelphia have been angry that their constituents have been required to have tailpipe tests while the tests have been delayed in other areas where they have been mandated to reduce pollution.

	EPA: Federal Register: Amendments to Vehicle Inspection Maintenance Program Requirements Incorporating the Onboard ...
		If, on the other hand, the vehicle passes its follow-up tailpipe inspection, the motorist would be allowed to complete the inspection process without seeking immediate repairs but would be advised that repairs would be required prior to the next inspection cycle.
		If the vehicle fails this second-chance tailpipe test, then the vehicle must be fixed and return for a retest using the OBD-I/M check; if the vehicle passes the second-chance tailpipe test, then it would be granted a one-test-cycle grace period during which to seek repairs to correct the initial OBD-I/M failure.
		Concerning the suggestion that the OBD-I/M check and traditional tailpipe tests like the IM240 are complementary, based on the observation that the two tests tend to fail different universes of vehicles during the Wisconsin pilot program, it must be pointed out that the vehicles which pass both tests (approximately 95% of the fleet) overlap entirely.

	TAILPIPE METHODOLOGY
		Tailpipe Tally is a tool that estimates fuel consumption and vehicle emissions using a series of assumptions to simplify calculations.
		First, city and highway fuel economy values are averaged (a weighted average, assuming 55% city driving/45% highway driving) to give a combined fuel economy value for each vehicle configuration available (e.g., engine size, transmission and certification level).
		The principal tailpipe standards applicable to the 2004 vehicles included in the tally are:

		Tailpipe exhaust from cars, trucks, and increasingly popular sport utility vehicles is a leading source of air pollution in the United States.
		Creating a tailpipe-trading system would not require many changes in the existing CAFE program, because the system already gives manufacturers credits from the federal government that they can bank and save in case their fleets fall short of future standards.
		Tailpipe trading would simply take the banking provision one step further; it would allow manufacturers to trade not only among themselves but also with petroleum producers, once Congress passes and the president signs a system to make CO

		Six trials were conducted: windows closed; windows open one inch; windows open 6 inches; windows closed and tailpipe swept clear of snow; windows closed and one cubic foot of snow removed around tailpipe; windows closed and tailpipe completely cleared of snow to ground level in a path 12 inches wide.
		Lethal levels of carbon monoxide occurred within 2.5 minutes in the vehicle when the windows were closed, within 5 minutes when the widows were opened one inch, and within 7.5 minutes when the widows were opened six inches.
		Dangerously high levels of carbon monoxide were detected within the vehicle when the tailpipe had been swept clear of snow and when a one cubic foot area had been cleared around the tailpipe.

	Center and Rear Muffler Replacement (4.0/4.6)
		Early models have a single tailpipe leading across to the right hand rear of the vehicle with a resonator at the rear end.
		Although either the muffler or the tailpipe can be removed or replaced independently, if you are doing both at once I found it easier to remove the tailpipe first.
		Once all the nuts are removed you can pull the tailpipe sideways to remove it from the rubber hangers, then extract it rearwards from the vehicle, manoevering it past the items like the rear axle that might get in the way.

	Tougher federal smog rules mean tailpipe tests possible
		Tailpipe emissions testing could return to southeast Michigan -- courtesy of strict new federal smog rules, say state officials.
		The state's unpopular 9-year tailpipe testing program was scrapped at the end of 1995 after Gov. John Engler declared it ineffective and intrusive.
		It required motorists to visit service stations and idle for 10 minutes with hoses attached to their vehicle's tailpipe.

	News Release: 1990-06-14 ARB Tightens Tailpipe Emission Limits for Light Trucks
		The standards, phased in over the 1995 and 1996 model years, would reduce emissions of smog-forming hydrocarbon and nitrogen oxide, as well as carbon monoxide, by 223 tons per day, compared to the 15,000 tons emitted by all vehicles in the state every day.
		Vehicles covered by the new standards, however, would have their emissions cut from 26 to 75 percent, depending on the model and its curb weight.
		Besides approving the tighter tailpipe limits, the ARB also doubled the amount of time that manufacturers must meet them, from 50,000 miles to 120,000 miles, after research showed that the vehicles are driven an average of 140,000 miles during their road life and emit 70 percent of their pollution past the 150,000 mile mark.

	Mitsubishi Tech - Minute Mod: Tailpipe Fix
		This tired tailpipe is one hill away from being flattened.
		When you get your tailpipe replaced (a definite eventuality if you do any wheeling at all!) muffler shops often leave an inch or so extending beyond the bumper.
		If you have already dragged your tail on the trail, you know that a thin-walled length of tubing is no match for the weight of your vehicle: The first time you drag it on the ground, it either damages the hangers, breaks away from the muffler, or, worse case scenario, the end end gets flattened.

		And, unlike the tailpipe test, the computer allows the state to get a handle on nitrogen oxides, the main cause of ozone.

		Here's how to "read" tailpipe smoke signals to help you determine whether they're the by-product of a harmless atmospheric phenomenon or the first sign of a major mechanical failure.
		A thin cloud of white vapor that quickly dissipates after leaving the tailpipe is probably the result of normal condensation buildup inside the exhaust system.
		A coolant leak into the engine's oil system may not cause any tailpipe smoke but could cause the oil to become thin and milky looking, and cause the coolant to look like brownish sludge.

	Trade, Politics,and the Environment: Tailpipe vs. Smokestack
		For example, we show that the impact of regulation on trade patterns depends on the type of pollution being regulated: while strict smokestack regula-tion dampens exports of pollution intensive goods, tailpipe regulation may promote these exports.
		Similarly, we show that pollution type may fundamentally alter the impact of openness on political opposition to environmental regulation: while openness may make dirty industry oppose smokestack regulation more vociferously, it can make industry a less ardent enemy of tailpipe regulation.
