My cars emissions is quite high.
Its had a new cat on it twice to, make sure the first one wasnt faulty the lamdba or lambdas have been changed! And a few of those injector flush's were chucked in the tank. O and also a new fuel filter and the air filter is good . I also checked my timing and its spot on!And no faults are stored through OBD.
The HC reading is around 125ppm! and i cant really remember the others. I was going to try a MAP sensor, because iv been recomended it by a few people now.
Just wondering what everyones thoughts might be , and ruffly a price of these sensors?
thanks

cts (coolant temp sensor) wil cause it to run rich
and check all vacume hoses on the engine, they cause it to run rich
and also replace the map sensor its easy to do and dont cost much if you get one from the scrappers
