California Smog/Emissions Test Failure, High HC
I'm in California, so you guys here will know the drill. I'm a test-only bitch of the state, and so I'm kind of limited in my options here. As I'm also limited in funds for sending it to a Test and Repair shop, I thought I'd come here first.
Here's the gist: 1990 Nissan 240sx, swapped SOHC for a 91' KA24DE. Roughly 200k miles on the clock (didn't write down from donor car). What I have, asterisk (*) indicates new since failure New Catalytic Converter *New Spark Plugs (NGK Platinum, properly gapped) *New Plug Wires (Bosch, I know, I know...) New Rotor and Cap *New Injector O-Rings (Nissan OEM, not 3rd party) Injectors all test within spec Compression 149 +/- 2 across the board Not burning any oil that I can detect Timing set 15 degrees BTDC as I heard that helps with HC. I was told I had a slight misfire at idle, which is why I've changed the above components. Now, for the numbers @idle (650 per fsm) %CO2 14.9 (Pass) %02 0.2 (Pass) HC PPM 169 / MAX=120 (FAIL) %CO .11 / MAX=1.0 (Pass) @2500~RPM %CO2 14.7 (Pass) %02 0.3 (Pass) HC PPM 72 / MAX=140 (Pass) %CO .37 / MAX=1.0 (Pass) So... any ideas? |
