Emissions

[Babaganoosh]

I had some trouble yesterday, It all started when they flooded a fully warm engine.

Here is 4 years ago

hydro crabons I got 0.84 out of 4
carbon monoxide I got 21.77 out of 40.00
oxides of nitrogen I got 1.69 out of 5.50

Here is 2 years ago

hydrocarbons got 0.48 of 4.00 allowed
carbon monoxide got 22.63 of 40.00 allowed
oxides of nitrogen got 1.23 of 5.50 allowed

Here is yesterdays

hydrocarbons got 1.69 of 4.00 allowed
carbon monoxide got 87.89 of 40.00 allowed
oxides of nitrogen got 1.26 of 5.50 allowed

anybody have any tips of what I can do to lower the carbon monoxide?

What kind of emissions gear are you running. My truck has only cats and i got it to pass with my Carbon monoxide at 0.0 and hydrocarbons at 29 out of 400.

I'm running everything that was on the truck when it was made. Not exactly sure what it all entails but it's all there for a 82. Once I find my camera cord I will post up what the plugs looked like.

I gotta pass the sniffer in TX....this helped me with diagnostics.

I found a couple things that follow the issues with your numbers...kinda a long read, but well worth the time.

So after talking to a few guys today, they said I'm running way rich. Now the question is how do I know if I'm running to lean after I mess with it?
