Zusammenfassung:Methods and systems for operating an engine that includes a catalyst and a particulate filter are described. In one example, release of reductant from an injector may be determined according to a plurality of metrics so that reliability of a release indication may be improved. In addition, operation of an engine may be adjusted responsive to the release indication so that exhaust system temperatures may be maintained.
