Replacement Engines

(1) In this section, "replacement engine" means an engine manufactured exclusively to replace an engine in a machine for which no current model year engine with the physical or performance characteristics necessary for the operation of the machine is manufactured by the manufacturer of the original engine.

(2) If the manufacturer of the replacement engine does not manufacture a current model year engine with the physical or performance characteristics necessary for the operation of the machine, the replacement engine may conform to, instead of the standards set out in sections 9 to 11:

  1. in the case where there exists a replacement engine manufactured to the specifications of a model year later than the model year of the original engine and with the physical or performance characteristics necessary for the operation of the machine:
    1. the standards referred to in sections 9 to 11 applicable to an engine manufactured to the specification of the model year of the replacement engine, or
    2. if none of the standards referred to in sections 9 to 11 apply, the manufacturer's specifications; and
  2. in any other case:
    1. the standards referred to in sections 9 to 11 applicable to the original engine, or
    2. if none of the standards referred to in sections 9 to 11 applied, the manufacturer's specifications.

(3) A replacement engine shall bear a label that meets the requirements set out in:

  1. subsections 7(3) and (4) and that sets out, in both official languages, that the engine is a replacement engine; or
  2. paragraph 1003(b)(7), subpart K, of the CFR.
