Today i did a little tune up on my non turbo 1995 eclipse, i changed both its engine oil and filter, changed its pcv value, its spark plugs and wires and cleaned some hoses here and there. I did all this because i recently bought the car and went and did a smog and it failed
. And they recommended to do its tune up to lower the numbers, but i still dont feel like it would pass... what else should i do?? Should i change both its oxygen sensors? Change its EGR valve?? Check for any kind of air leaks?? but i have no clue how to do that. Should i run some seafoam?? Get 91 octane?
Well if anyone has any suggestions that would be great
This is my first car ever and im only 17 so im still learning soo sorry if i seem like a big noob.
Ohhhh and today when i changed the fourth spark plug, i noticed that engine oil was on it... is that bad??? Ohh after the tune up, the speedometer doesnt work anymore, is it the VSS?? haha sorry for all the questions, im just trying to learn my way through this car.
Here are the readings to the smog check, sorry for the crappy pics.

ill see what the possiblities are..
but code 21 is oxygen sensor. That could be something i could replace for smog..
