My 93 MTX just passed the smog test. This is with 136K on the odometer,
new plug wires, plugs, valve shims just done.(the following not new) PP
Y-Pipe, Sho Shop cold air snorkel, 80mm MAF, Ted Breaux LPM. Here in
California we have to have the smog test done while the car is on
rollers to simulate actually driving friction/resistance at two
different speeds(15&25 mph). The car was within spec on most everything
except during the 15 mph test. The max HC permitted was 85 PPM and that
is exactly what mine was. FWIW here are the readings:
15 MPH test
RPM(1606) %CO2(14.8) %O2(0.2) HC PPM MAX(85) AVG(21) MEAS(85) CO(%)
MAX(0.50) AVG(0.06) MEAS (0.14) NO MAX(695) AVG(150) MEAS(523)
25 MPH test
RPM 2604 %CO2(14.8) %02(0.0) HC PPM MAX(50) AVG(13) MEA(34) CO%
MAX(0.47) AVG(0.05) MEAS(0.02) NO PPM MAX(717) AVG(136) MEAS(471)
Hope the 15 MPH hydrocarbons don't byte me the next time it has to be
done. I don't like cutting it quite that close.
