Emissions FAIL - Friend's 95 Cav z24

K I know it's a cav.. 95 cav z24, 4cyl whatever.. mileage is like 150K or less..

basically it failed on the C0 2 tests..

C0 2 @ curb idle test was 2 1/2 times over the limit.

C0 2 @ run test was 0.5 limit of 0.42 ..

Anyone know like what area or whatever would be the culprit of this?

thanks..

take that little jdm Honda stick out of your *** and help the man.

CO2 will be present in normal conditions, but too much of it usually just indicates a rich AF mixture. The cause of this could be varied, but I'd start at the O2 sensor and the injectors. It sounds like the IACV could be to blame as well.

i dont hate americans... i just dont agree with your government.... and anybody that does is either really stupid or just ignorant

in my original post i did say american auto manufacturers... not america... the reason american cars aren't made well is cause the people in power at those companies just want to get rich... the actual product coming out means little to them..
