Evening all,
This is my first post here so please be gentle =P I've recently brought an ST202 and today it went for its mot, apart from the various braking issues it failed on engine emissions. I know the car has been sat for a year or so and it did have some old fuel in it so I'm hoping that a fresh tank and some Wynns fuel treatment will do the job however the natural idle speed was lower than the limits, is there anything I can do to bump up the idle a fraction? Also is there anything else folk would suggest to get it through? Emissions sheet attached FYI.

Cheers for the suggestions, I'm also contemplating contacting Toyota in the morning to find out mm/yy build date as I believe if my car was before August 1995 then it can be tested to the more relaxed emissions (?), I will still be changing lambda sensor though, any recommendations on places to buy? I believe mine is the 2 bolt down type not the screw in one.
Air filter is a cone aftermarket and I was planning on changing other service items. I was hoping not to change the cat if it can be helped. I'll keep you posted. |
