Man I just failed my emissions test today. I had a feeling that it might happen, but I was hoping that I would be relieved, and I obviously wasn't.
Here are the test results:
1. Gas Cap Check (Pass)
2. EVAP Components (Pass)
3. Hydrocarbons (Fail)
My Car registered at:2.50 (g)
State applicable: 1.60 (g)
4. Oxides of Nitrogen (Fail)
My car registered at: 3.43 (g)
State applicable: 2.50 (g)
From reading the numbers, what should I have done to my car so that it will pass the 2nd test.
I know for a fact that I need to have the spark plug wires connecting to the correct spark plugs. I had a feeling that they weren't in the correct sequential order, and when the guy at the emissions gave me the list of problems that I may be having, one of the reasons was the problem I just mentioned.
Other problems could be the catalytic converter, etc... I'm sure you guys know more about this stuff than me, so I am asking advice as to what I should be looking to have repaired before my next test.
All advice is appeciated.
Thanks
