Measure C02 at home

Hi- appologies if this has been covered a million times before, but I am struggling to find anything on it:

I would like to measure C02 for IVA emmisions prep at home. Is it possible to use my AEM Wideband AFR Lambda UEGO Gauge to do this?

Otherwise, how can I do it bar taking it down the local MOT station?

Thanks in advance.

Matt

An oxygen sensor can't measure CO2.

It's CO, not CO2, which is tested at IVA by the way.

You can't measure CO, or CO2 with a lambda probe, but you should be able to get the mixture correct with a lambda probe, which should give you the correct CO2 and CO.
