First off a very big thank you to all at Brickboard and especially to Lucid. As I posted yesterday I failed NJ emissions. NOx was 2532(standard is 1273), HC was 62(standard is 167), CO% was 0.10(standard is 0.94). So my NOx was twice what it should have been. Following Brickboards(Lucids) brilliant advice I disconnected vacuum line to the ignition controler which is behind passenger side headlite and I plugged it up. Went for retest this morning. Passed ! NOx was down to 1054 ! HC was 22 and CO% was 0.08 . Question : Should I leave this vacuum line disconnected and plugged up ?? Runs & drives fine/same as when it was unplugged & connected. Again a very big thanks to all at Brickboard.
