Colorado Emissions
« on: September 19, 2014, 10:53:35 am »
Just moved to Colorado and from New Jersey and I am having a hard time passing emissions. Truck has new cats and I got it tuned up I thought.  But I'm coming out high on CO %. Any Coloradans got any tips for me?  Thanks for the help.

Sounds like it's running rich. What are your other readings?

It was running rich. I have and edelbrock carb, not sure which one exactly. I leaned it out using the two screws on the front and drove it right back through and passed.   It runs well still, but now it doesn't start very easily.

Turn the screws back

You're good for another year
