Hello, I just moved to Virginia which has tailpipe emissions testing (as opposed to MD where they just looked for OBD fault codes). Anyhow, I just failed emissions, and I *really* need to get my car passed ASAP so I can register it in Virginia.
Here are the emissions test results:
15 MPH: (limit/reading/result)
---------------------------------
HC ppm: 74/129/FAIL
CO %: 0.41/0.00/PASS
NO ppm: 586/582/PASS <-- that was close :-D
25 MPH: (limit/reading/result)
----------------------------------
HC ppm: 72/150/FAIL
CO %: 0.40/0.00/PASS
NO ppm: 531/648/FAIL
So there are the results.. Mod's are in my sig, any ideas on what to do? I have a 3-way diablo chip with it set on the stock tune, so the timing shouldn't be an issue. I've heard about adding rubbing alcohol to the gas, but I'm not sure if this is a good idea?
Thanks -
