About ECO PLUS™

Briggs & Stratton® engines featuring ECO PLUS™ Emissions Reducing Technology deliver significantly improved environmental performance.

In addition to exceeding current European exhaust emissions standards (2010/26/EU) by at least 25%, the ECO PLUS engines offer reduced evaporative emissions performance by up to 59% compared to engines which do not feature the ECO PLUS emissions reduction components.

Evaporative emissions happen in two ways:

Permeation
Permeation emissions are the result of reactive organic gas molecules penetrating through the walls of the fuel system components, e.g. fuel tank walls, fuel lines, gaskets and seals.

Venting

Venting emissions are the result of fuel evaporating. The fuel evaporation will exit the fuel system by way of venting.

ECO PLUS Technology reduces these emissions considerably.
