Almost right.
It showed up on 1974.5 model year North American cars, along with the EGR
valve and all the rest of the worst pollution control equipment. It lit up
a warning lamp on the console after 25,000 miles, indicating that the EGR
valve should be checked.
The counter and lamp were deleted from Canadian cars with the 1976 model
year, and from US cars with the 1977 model year.
