Okay I failed a HC test at idle. I was kinda shocked actually. Its a run around car for the nieces etc but it runs really well.
Here are my findings.
Idle HC 220/359 (standard/reading) FAIL
Idle OC 1.2%/0.48% (standard/reading) PASS
High HC 220/100 (standard/reading) PASS
Idle OC 1.2%/0.6% (standard/reading) PASS
Clearly im running too rich or have compression problems.
But their computer broke and my car set for over 1 hour in freezing weather. It wasnt hot when they tested it and I asked to test it again they said it wont make a difference. To me that is BS. So I want to go in and let it run for awhile and leaving it idling while it waits in line.
I will change the plugs and maybe make the fuel more lean with some ethanol.
Any other ideas? Other then waiting to not do this in freezing cold weather? Oh BTW its a 95 Olds Cutless Supreme
Thanks
Oops the second High speed test I wrote idle its actually High Speed at 2502 RPM. My Idle speed was at 765.
