Od 1. oktobra 1990 lahko države članice prepovedo začetek uporabe vozil z motorjem na prisilni vžig, katerih zahteve za gorivo ne izpolnjujejo določb prilog k Direktivi 70/220/EGS, spremenjeni s to direktivo, razen če proizvajalec predloži certifikat, sprejet pri organu za tehnično preskušanje, ki je izdal prvotno homologacijo glede na emisije, v katerem je navedeno, da prilagajanje takšnih vozil novim zahtevam za gorivo zahteva velike konstrukcijske spremembe, in sicer spremembo v specifikaciji materiala v sedežu sesalnega ali izpušnega ventila, ali znižanje kompresijskega razmerja, ali povečanje prostornine motorja, da se nadomesti izguba moči; v takem primeru je prepoved mogoča samo od datumov iz člena 2 (3).
From 1 October 1990, Member States may prohibit the entry into service of vehicles fitted with a positive ignition engine whose fuel requirements do not meet the provisions of the Annexes to Directive 70/220/EEC, as amended by this Directive, except where the manufacturer provides a certificate accepted by the technical service which issued the initial emission type-approval stating that adapting such vehicles to the new fuel requirement entails major engineering changes, namely a change in material specification of the inlet or exhaust valve seats or a reduction in the compression ratio, or an increase in the engine capacity to compensate for power loss; in which case, such a ban is possible only from the dates laid down in Article 2 (3).
