Emissions fail - Advice help please
GBaggott - 12/10/10 at 11:02 AM

My friend has just failed the IVA on emissions.
It is a Mini with a ZZR1400 engine in the boot. It does have a CAT but is still running rich and failing. Has anybody had experience with this - and will leaning out the mixture just with a power commander be enough?

Suggestions please

What were the readings? Knowing that allows you to make an educated guess as to where the problem is.
