Volks, Emissions tested after 20 months and 20,000 miles when done by previous owner. Seemingly big changes have occurred since last tested. DRIVING: HC's - 27 to 86 ppm (181 max) ~up 68% CO - .66 to .60 % (1.69 max) ~unchanged NOx - 772 to 1810 ppm (2105 max) ~up 58% IDLE: HC's - 241 to 258 ppm (392 max) ~unchanged CO -.27 to .03 % (4.45 max) ~down 88% HC's are high and NOx is very high - almost the maximum. Any ideas? Had a major tune up 6000 miles ago. Engine has about 40,000 miles. Ignition wires and air filter changed prior to testing. Should maybe have changed the the plugs and cap though.
