Subject:emissions inspection failed on 83

Well, everything passed state inspection except emissions, which failed
miserably.  Since I never had a mechanic look over the whole vehicle when I
bought it, I'd like to take it somewhere that really knows these things to
fix the emissions and do an overall inspection for me.  Can anyone
recommend a place in/near Durham, NC?

Here are my emissions results:

Test          Reading   Standard
HC (ppm)    406         220
CO (%)      6.09         1.20
CO2(%)     10.0         ------

Does this info suggest what needs repairing?  If it's not too difficult,
I'll try it myself.

Thanks!

Marc
