So heres the deal
When I took it in last week for smog these were the results:
RPM: 787
HC= 426PPM (must be below 150)
NO= 0PPM
C0=2.39% (must be below1.2%)
CO2= 13.2%
O2= 0%
RPM:2353
HC=358 (must be below 180)
NO= 0 PPM
CO= .70%
Co2= 13.7%
O2= 1%
Had a High speed miss fire as well
I then replaced the spark plugs, cleaned the o2 sensor, and re****ed the timing (was at 12 now at 8) the high speed miss is now gone and the new smog results as of today are:
RPM:789
HC= 267still too high
No= 0 PPM
co= 2.43%too high
co2= 13.2%
o2=.2%
High RPM: no print out but it passed this portion!
{HC=pass} was about 80 (huge difference compared above!)
pass
pass
pass
pass
What should I check that would give it a rich mixture at idle but allow it to run just about perfect at high RPM?
Other info: No codes, Has LCengineering header with recommended heated o2 sensor, motor is rebuilt with 4000 miles on it by professional company, cat was replaced 2 years ago but may need replacement due to sinking vehicle twice and running with no o2 sensor for a few months.
Think a new cat can bring it down or should i check somewhere else first?
thanks
