Hey everyone,
I have a situation here. My 1993 Eclipse GXS has failed the emissions test 4 times at idle, but at higher RPMs that damn thing burns REALLY CLEAN for this area.
Test Results:
Standards: HC 220 CO 1.2
Idle test: HC 1906 CO 1.4 (3rd test)
Higher RPMs: HC 90 CO 0.6
I tried talking with the ILEPA rep, but he said that there's nothing that they can do to get me a waiver since my car has to be tested at IDLE because of the AWD.
I think that the main problem is that something is wrong that causes my car to idle like crap! It seems to loose power when idling, and sometimes even dies. I've heard that this could be caused by the IAC, and was wondering if anyone else had similiar problems.
I don't want to get rid of the car, so I need to get it to pass, any suggestions?
Thanks!!!
