inspection failure
I went to the state insp station and they said the car failed for co's the line was very long and I sat at idle for a long time before the test . could the long idle time have caused the co's to build up or does anyone have a reason and or fix so that I can get the rejected sticker off my windshield. I guess it would help to tell you the year and engine it is an 84 with crossfire injection.I was reading some posts about tune ups and I thought I read something about balancing the intakes can someone explain this procedure Thanks for the suggestions

In an engine without an O2 sensor that would be true, on engines that use one the O2 sensor sees the additional oxygen introduced by the vacuum leak as a lean condition, the ECM then increases injector pulse width to compensate thereby adding fuel.
