Hi, I just got my SC as some of you may know and I think there's something wrong with my EGR system.
I believe my NoX emissions were wayyy up there and my car was marked as a gross polluter.
How do I get it to pass?
I believe the first step is to run seafoam, which intend to do tomorrow. Where on the intake should I run the vacuum line to the can of seafoam to?
I also think I have a very minor vacuum leak somewhere, as I idle around 1000rpm, 1500 when cold (doesn't seem to be unusual as my girlfriend's 00 mustang 3.8 does the exact same thing)
I believe my EGR system is not working correctly. I think the EGR valve may be bad. How do I check this?
Second,
I need a set of catalytic converters, I think.
How do I tell if my cats are bad?
Lastly, what other tricks can I use to get it to pass smog?
Thanks,
Ghost
