Mr. Carb Posted October 18, 2004 Share Posted October 18, 2004 Failed again, primarly for informational uses, I'm posting this mainly for austin to see the results. hydrocarbons: Cruise:340ppm, limit:180ppm Idle:355ppm, limit:220ppm CO(%) Cruise:6.24 limit: 1.3 Idle:0.12 limit: 1.2 (Passed) O2: Cruise:2.34 Idle:8.97 Idle rpm was:830rpms Cruise was: 1,780rpms Currently stumped, Will be taking it to downtown to have it checked up.

edrach Posted October 18, 2004 Share Posted October 18, 2004 Carl, do yourself a favor and take it down to the emissions guru in south Seattle (Austin knows where). Any work you do is just a guess and even if it runs better, it doesn't mean it'll pass emissions. Judging from the numbers you posted, it looks worse than last time. Also, I don't understand how they managed to run cruise at 1750 rpm; it's supposed to be 2500 (+ or - 200 I believe).

torxxx Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 . Also, I don't understand how they managed to run cruise at 1750 rpm; it's supposed to be 2500 (+ or - 200 I believe). Ed is right. I watched a sooby get IM'd today. 2500 RPM is the test rpm for cruising. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbone Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 Yes, thats true. I got one tested last week and it was 2500rpm's. Did you take the car back to the place your first got it tested at? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calebz Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 Yeah, thats weird.. Maximum idle is 1100, minimum cruise is like 2200, with 2500 being the norm...Was the test performed under load? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Carb Posted October 19, 2004 Author Share Posted October 19, 2004 They dyno it to drive 25mph under the vehicle equalivalant load. With the auto, thats 1700 rpms... And yeah, I'm taking it down to the specialist... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Carb Posted October 19, 2004 Author Share Posted October 19, 2004 I think it's failing because they're driving it 25mph under load at 1700 rpms... Test results Are better than the first time, first time the cruise CO was 9.43 % instead of 6, so it's not as bad. And this time, the coolant temp never got above 190ºF during the whole test.

edrach Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 Sounds like they are letting the auto shift into 3rd (?); might be better to limit it to 2nd to get the rpm up to normal specs.

Mr. Carb Posted October 19, 2004 Author Share Posted October 19, 2004 Thats exactly what they're doing, and they say it has to be tested in drive, no other gear... they're being pricks about it. Anyway, I'm taking it down to that guy in South Seattle today, and letting him look it all over and fix it if he can. If anything he can just sign a waver at this point.
