Almost Failed smog
Almost Failed smog The High speed did not change much at all but the low speed did to the point where it almost failed. I havent really driven that car more than 2500 miles in the last year. Here are the results from 2005 compared to 2006.

April 2005 - 66,510 Miles
HC (PPM) Standard 117 Current Reading 15
CO (%) Standard 0.65 Current Reading 0.01
CO2 (%) 14.8
O2 % 0.4
NOx (ppm) Standard 879 Current Reading 441
Dillution (%) >6 14.8
April 2006 - 69,074 Miles
HC (PPM) Standard 117 Current Reading 108
CO (%) Standard 0.65 Current Reading 0.36

Yeah I just got through going through the emissions crap. My car kept failing HC. It needed a .08 to pass and kicked out a .26
I replaced the converter with a high flow one. It did better .18 but it still failed. So I replaced the oxygen sensors and did a full tune up. $1500 later it passed.
I hate emissions.

The gas was actually from the night before, the limit has come down here by almost half, ituse to be 220 on the HC
