Well, I tuned up the 914 (72 1.7) and drove the hell out of it before my emissions test. It failed HC at idle, here's the results:
HC Loaded Reading: 123 PASS Loaded Standard: 400 Idle Reading: 431 FAIL Idle Standard: 400 CO Loaded Reading: 0.27 PASS Loaded Standard: 4.2 Idle Reading: 0.30 PASS Idle Standard: 5.50 I set the ECU all the way counter clockwise and adjusted my idle to around 1100 for the test. Maybe I set this the wrong way? I set it per Brad Anders' webpage suggests. Or maybe TPS? Since I passed so well on the others, I don't want to undo what I did right for my idle test. Could be a vacuum leak I have a 200-300 rpm hunt - hoses check out so I am left with plenum gaskets, cold start gaskets or a cracked plenum. Gimme some ideas! |

Yeah, have to test back to 1967 here in metro Phoenix, it sucks!
It was popping a little bit, I can adjust it out - wish I had a meter to tell when I am close. |
