Non cat test rpm query

L5W - 30/3/12 at 04:22 PM

Hi,

My engine is 1994 and I have proof of age from ford so this should get me the non cat test during the IVA. Is this test carried out just at idle speed? or higher rpms too? Just had a look through the manual but the answer wasn't jumping out at me

Thanks,

Lee

Probably 3.5% at idle and a max of 1200 HC but if no one can give a definate answer nip down to Jupiter road and ask an IVA inspector?

I believe its 3.5 co 1200hc and 3000max rpm but please check say at VOSA

thanks, got the emissions checked yesterday at idle and they're within the limits (CO approx 1.6% and HC approx 950). I didn't even think to check at higher rpms though. I know my megasquirt map gets starts to get rich at higher rpms so I need to do some adjustments this weekend (IVA next thurs!)

Thanks

Lee
