1991 N/A Emissions
I have a 1991 N/A with a stage 1 street port from hayes rotary and a R&D Thermal Catback dual exhaust. I tried to get it inspected, but they told me the numbers were way off. Does anyone know how to fix something like this and is it really that far off that I should just forget it and sell the car?
Here are the readings they gave me:
HC 3.7 gpm Limits = .8 gpm
CO 20.29 gpm Limits = 15 gpm
NOx .81 Limits = 2.0 gpm
Any help would be greatly appreciated because I have no idea...

Unfortunately, I just bought the car, so i have no idea what was done. He told me he got new belts, radiator hoses, and a new radiator. A mechanic of mine said that bad spark plugs/wires can cause the HydroCarbons to be high. He also mentioned that the O2 sensor could be the culprit. Anyone know from experience if either or both of these can cause these problems? Can this really be as simple as replacing the spark plugs? Anyone know a good rotary mechanic on Long Island by chance? Im just outside of queens :/

You need a tune up, a good catalytic converter and an operating air-pump. Cats last only a year or two on rotaries. Many people have tried all the tricks and then in desparation replaced the cat. THEN they pass the sniffer test.
Me included.
Good Luck!
