How do I test EPA Low-Emission Fuel Lines for permeation emissions?
For EPA Low-Emission Fuel Lines, measure emissions according to SAE J2260, which is incorporated by reference in §1060.810. [74 FR 8427, Feb. 24, 2009] § 1060.515 How do I test EPA Nonroad Fuel Lines and EPA Cold-Weather Fuel Lines for permeation emissions? Measure emission as follows for EPA Nonroad Fuel Lines and EPA Cold-Weather Fuel Lines: (a) Prior to permeation testing, use good engineering judgment to precondition the fuel line by filling it with the fuel specified in this paragraph (a), sealing the openings, and soaking it for at least four weeks at 43 ±5 °C or eight weeks at 23 ± 5 °C. (1) For EPA Nonroad Fuel Lines, use Fuel CE10, which is Fuel C as specified in ASTM D471 (incorporated by reference in §1060.810) blended with ethanol such that the blended fuel has 10.0 ± 1.0 percent ethanol by volume. (2) For EPA Cold-Weather Fuel Lines, use gasoline blended with ethanol such that the blended fuel has 10.0 ± 1.0 percent ethanol by volume. (b) Drain the fuel line and refill it
