well i failed my emissions test
the HC level had surpassed the legal limit
725is the limit and i ran 925

there are a number of things it could be but i beleive the main thing could be the SAFCII
which changed the air/fuel ratio
any idea's or opinions?

Wouldn't excessive hydrocarbons mean you're running rich? Maybe my logic is wrong but I know hydrocarbon emissions is fuel that hasn't been completely burned. So if you had too much fuel going in and there isn't enough spark to burn it all it leads to unburned gas out the back, thus high HC levels, yes?
