thanks to the help of this forum ive brought y tired 4.o from the brink of death back to life. my other thread about engine knock after my rebuild has ended successfully and now its time for the next hurdle: passing CA emissions.
today i went to get a smog and failed the emissions portion. heres my numbers
hc-measured - 148 @ 15mph 110@ 25mph
max- 61 36
no- measured- 676@ 15 pmh 734@ 25 mph
max- 350 527
i passed the co
so... as you might know from my other thread, all the most common problems with old ignition and air filter hardware is new and clean. running 91 octane.
however, my cat is 20 years old. my car does smell strongly of emissions but not quite like rotten eggs or sulfur. is there anything i can add in to the engine to help out? i know most of that stuff is just high octane fuel risers.
i wish i was closer so i could wait or take it to another place but im pretty high over.
