S t a t e of California AIR RESOURCES BOARD April 22, 1975 Staff Report Evaluation of the Contignitron Company's Request t o Modify i t s "Model 48" Oxides of Nitrogen Control Device f o r 1966-70 Model- Year Chrysler Vehicle Applications I. Introduction Complaints have been received by the Air Resources Board of detonation occurring w i t h 1966-70 model-year Chrysler vehicles when equipped w i t h Contignitron Company's Model 48 oxides of nitrogen control device. 1n"response t o these complaints, Contignitron has requested approval t o modify the device f o r t h i s vehicle application. Contignitron's modification request i s shown i n Appendix I . The modified device i s i d e n t i f i e d a s Model 48C. 11. Device Description The basic electronic c i r c u i t s f o r both the Model 48 and 48C devices a r e a s follows: 1. A transistorized power switch c i r c u i t t o replace the heavy current switching performed by the breaker points i n the conventional ignition system.

2. An electronic timer c i r c u i t t h a t controls the transistorized power switch f o r spark time duration. 3. An electronic variable time delay c i r c u i t t o control spark timing advance. 4. A tachometer c i r c u i t t o control the variable time delay as a function of engine RPM. Both devices electronically control the spark timing so as t o provide f i v e degrees (Model 48) and three degrees (Model 48C) retard below centrifugal advance (dependent upon d i s t r i b u t o r centrifugal advance c h a r a c t e r i s t i c s ) below 1700 RPM engine speed. Above 1700 RPM, timing i s advanced proportional t o engine speed. The Model 48 device provides up t o ten degrees timing advance over the centrifugal advance in the high speed region. The Model 48C advances up t o three degrees over 0 C c- centrifugal advance and r e q u i r e a one degree i n i t i a l timing retard from the vehicle manufacturers specification. 111. Modification Evaluation Testing A. Emission Tests 1. Contignitron's Data Contignitron submitted data from t e s t s performed by AESI on (2) 1969 Dodge Pick-ups, 318 CID, 2-bbl carburetor and automatic transmission. These are state-owned vehicles which experienced spark detonation when equipped with the Model 48 device. The vehicles were loaned t o Contignitron f o r i t s evaluation t e s t i n g . The following is a summary of Contignitron's t e s t data showing a compdrison of the emission levels and fuel economy produced by each device:

Two Tests **Avg. Three Tests The staff contends that the modifications made to the Model 48 device has not reduced its emission control effectiveness. The modified device does lower fuel economy because of the more retarded ignition timing. B. Driveability Tests 1. - Contignitron's Data Contignitron performed vehicle acceleration tests on the Model 48C device. No data was presented but Contignitron states that no detonation occurred with the modified device. 2. ARBData Warm driveability tests were performed by the ARB laboratory. A summary of these tests is shown below:

Demeri t s Base1 ine Model 48 Model 48C 1970 Plymouth 0 37 0 1969 Dodge - 0 - 31 - 12 Total 0 68 12 Sixty-two of the 68 demerits noted in the t e s t s of the Model 48 device were the r e s u l t of detonations. No demerits for detonations were detected " % w i t h baseline vehicle or w i t h the Model 48C device. VSAD, Model 48 and Model 48C device centrifugal advance curves are shown in Figures 1 and 2. These Figures show t h a t the modifications have reduced the spark advance of the Model 48 device a t the higher engine speeds t o only approximately two degrees more advance than the centrifugal advance. The modifications have a l s o limited the change in timing during s t a r t i n g conditions. The Model 48 device advances the spark by u p t o 12 degrees from the i d l e speed timing, whereas, the Model 48C device advances the timing by two degrees. The s t a f f i s of the opinion t h a t the modified device has improved drive- a b i l i t y by eliminating the detonation problem and improved s t a r t i n g con- d i t i o n s by reducing the device's e f f e c t on timing changes a t these conditions. IV. Compliance w i t h General Standards The s t a f f contends t h a t the modifications proposed by Contignitron t o i t s I Model 48 device does not a1 t e r the previous s t a f f evaluations of Contignitron's application f o r accreditation of i t s Model 4-8 device and of subsequent device modifications (Models 46 and 48) r e l a t i v e t o these requirements. The i n i t i a l l y a c c r e l i t e d device, Model 4-8, was designed t o produce up t o s i x degrees of spark retard from t h e centrifugal advance curve. See Figure a

3. Because of the concern expressed by the s t a f f regarding the potential adverse temperature e f f e c t s caused by t h i s amount of spark retard, Contignitron requested approval t o modify the device. The modified designs, Models 48 and 46, electronically restored u p t o 12 degrees of spark advance above the centrifugal advance curve a t the higher engine speeds. See Figure 3 f o r the spark curve of the Model 48 device (used w i t h 8-cylinder engines). Approval f o r t h i s modification was granted prior t o the hearing t o deaccredit the Echlin device. Also p r i o r t o the hearing, the accreditation procedures were revised t o require positive protection against more than four degrees of spark retard a t speeds above 60 mph. The decision rendered by t h e hearing o f f i c e r i n the Echlin device deaccreditation proceedings did not a sustain the Air Resources Board position. devices accredited without Thus, those manufacturers of protection against spark retard a t higher speeds were not required t o add t h i s feature t o t h e i r devices. By t h i s decision, Cont'igni tron could market the i n i t i a t l y accredited device, Model 4-8, i f i t elected t o do so. The s t a f f maintains t h a t precedent has been established i n the processing of modifications of t h i s type and i t cannot invoke the positive spark retard protection requirement of the revised protection requirement of the revised accreditation procedures t o Contignitron's modification request. The spark timing produced by the Model 48C device i s a compromise between the spark advance c h a r a c t e r i s t i c s of the Models 48 and 4-8 devices. The modifications have eliminated detonations occurring w i t h Model 48 device

equipped Chrysler products and has improved the control of oxides of nitrogen emissions. V. Conclusions and Recommendations Test data and other information presented by the Contignitron Company and data obtained from t e s t s performed by the ARB laboratory on the proposed modified Model 48 device, Model 48C, show compliance t o the emission and general standards of the NOx device accreditation procedures. The s t a f f reconmends granting Contignitron Company's request t o modify its ModeJ 48 device f o r 1966-70 model-year Chrysler vehicle applications.
