I took my car in for inspection. It failed the High Speed Emissions Nox(ppm) test. The Standard is 1240 and my result was 1267. How can I lower my Nox(ppm)?

NOX is caused by high combustion temperatures so look at things like

  • EGR system inoperative
  • engine temp too high
  • heavy carbon buildup on piston dome
  • timing too far advanced (although too low will cause high HC)
