be landscaped, Wells said.

hoenix,
there was an
uction of 56 per-
cent in carbon monoxide (CO)
after tune-up. There was also
an average reduction of 40
percent in hydrocarbon (HC)
after tune-up.
In Denver, the average re-
duction in CO after ~une-up
was 50 percent and the aver-
age reduction in HC was 47
percent. What may be even
more significant, the 50 per-
cent failure rate in Phoenix
was reduced to zero after
tune-up. In Denver, the failure
rate was reduced from 61
percent to 5 percent after
tune-up.
From these findings, it ap-
pears that maintenance or lack
of same has more to do with
emissions than any other fac-
tor.
On the average, CO emis-
sions for all 1970 to 1972
cars tested was 2.9 percent.
For the 1968-69's, it was 3.9
percent. For the pre-1968's,
4.7 percent.
For hydrocarbon emissions
the 1970-72 cars averaged 308
parts per million. The 1968-
69's averaged 450 parts per
million. The pre-1968 aver-
aged 723 parts per millions.
A consistent pattern
emerges. The new cars .start
out cleaner and they stay
cleaner throughout their op-
erations, because of anti-pol-
lution devices designed and
installed by the automobile
manufacturers.
