Fail -
tester was interested in the paint actually, even though he wrote it down as 'green' LOL
2 items, (technically three, but who's counting)
both front headlights are shagged - the inner lens is cloudy and throwing no pattern at all, might even have the wrong bulbs in it as well, no idea ? anyone know what bulbs should go in twin optics?
second - emissions, CO was up in the 5% range, and not coming down when revved, however as i pointed out to the guy, he did test it at about oh i dunno - FLAT COLD, it was reading 75-80 degrees on the guage after the test, and when i asked about it he said anything over 80 is fine, and he tested it.... so no hot exhaust to make the cat start working, and the normal operating temp in this is anything from 90-95.....gawd dumbass... it had a new cat, lambda sensor / gaskets etc in july so shouldn't be a problem there
just have to work through the obvious stuff it could be.. air leaks, sensors, blowing exhaust joints just to have peace of mind then get it retested after a hoon
