The '95MTX failed emissions again!
The first time it failed, after I replaced the 80mm MAF with the OEM part
and it was dirty. HC was a whopping 2.09gpm where .8gpm is passing. Not
only was it running crappy, the alternator was failing. Drove out of the
place and noticed all of 9v on the gauge.
Well, I cleaned the MAF, replaced the O2 sensors, the Baro Sensor, the TPS,
added a gallon of denatured alky to half a tank of already 10% alky blend
prem gas. Still doesn't seem to run 100%. It came close to passing with a
.88gpm, but close won't let me renew the plates.
It has a bit of a stumble right at tip-in, and that is where the emissions
facility graph seemed to indicate high HC, and seconds later high NOx, so I
got another TPS.
Need the voltage at what point you set the thing to. I am more than willing
to hog out the holes so I can set it to what ever is correct. Seem to
remember .5v, but was that with the motor running or not?

"double clutch" it's good for both you and your SHO
