‘ State of California AIR RESOURCES BOARD EVALUATION OF MAGNA CHARGER BY B & D RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT MODEL NUMBER MC1OA FOR EXEMPTION FROM THE PROHIBITIONS OF VEHICLE CODE SECTION 27156 IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 2222, TITLE 13, OF THE CALIFORNIA CODE OF REGULATIONS by Mobile Source Division State of California Air Resources Board 9528 Telstar Avenue E1 Monte, CA 91731—2990 (This report has been reviewed by the staff of the California Air Resources Board and approved for publication. Approval does not signify that the contents necessarily reflect the views and policies of the Air Resources Board, nor does mention of trade names or commercial products constitute ‘ endorsement or recommendation for use.)

SUMMARY B & D Research and Development, of 15948 Arminta St., Van Nuys, CA 91406, has applied for an exemption from the prohibitions in Section 27156 of the California Vehicle Code for the Magna Charger mode! number MC1OA. The Magna Charger model number MC1OA is designed for installation on 1990 and older model year light duty vehicles. Previously, the Air Resources Board exempted three similar devices; "Polarion—X" by AZ Industries, Inc., "Petro—Mizer MKI" by P and M Research and Development Laboratory, and "Fuel Energizer" by Magnetizer Group, Inc., with the same basic operating principles. Based on the engineering evaluation of the device and exemption of similar devices, the staff believes the Magna Charger model number MC1OA does not have any adverse effect on exhaust emissions. The staff recommends the Magna Charger model number MC1OA be exempted from the prohibitions in Vehicle Code Section 27156 and that Executive Order D—212 be issued.
