87 300e euro failed emissions/ smog test. What to do?
I went to the local e-check today, and was really disappointed...
HC: @2500rpm limit: 220 Reading: 286.4 fail CO: @2500rpm limit: 1.20 Reading: 7.88 fail CO2: @2500rpm 6.38. (no limit) HC: @idle limit: 220 Reading: 449.0 fail CO: @idle limit: 1.20 Reading: 5.10 fail CO2: @idle 4.07 Gas cap: PASS!!!:D The car was at operating temp, I just filled up with 92, plus a bottle of octane booster. Im burning through gas like I got a hole in my tank.. Im guessing about 200 miles to 16 gallons (12-13mpg) The O2 sensor was put on after the fact. Part of the fed process I guess. The car is originally from Belgium.. Where do I start? |
O2 sensor working?

IIRC a bad O2 sensor will cause your MPG to drop drastically. Your CO readings seem to point to a non, or poorly functioning sensor. How old is the sensor, how many miles? There are a couple very knowledgeable emissions folks around here who can give a better diagnosis of your emissions readings.

187k on the clock.
How would I test the o2 sensor? hot or cold? what reading would I get if good or bad? |
Just for ducks,you may want to make sure that your OVP relay is working......
