Emissions Fireblade
Aico - 21/1/08 at 09:07 AM

I'm looking at a Striker with a 919 Fireblade engine. Buildyear of 2004. It has a type approval with VOSA. On the V5C there is nothing stated under exhaust emissions. On VOSA CO=N/A(written), HC=N/A. So nothing there aswell or does this mean 3.5% CO? What are the emissiondemands? Is the engine post-1995?

I do have the engine#: SC28E-2115612. Maybe someone can look it up somewhere??

Sounds like a smoke test to me. No standard on the book means the MOT tester has nothing to compare...

He may default to the 3.5 test or you can argue its a visual smoke test which is normally the case with Q reg vehicles.

1993 engine if that helps.....

The engine number would suggest its an RRP which is 1993 as Shilvers stated. However, that would make the engine an 893cc not a 919cc. The 919cc was introduced 1995/1996.

Have you seen the engine and are you certain it's a 919cc?? The engines cc is cast into the block and quite easy to identify.
