Oh yeah, make sure you don't have any leaky injectors and another
possibility is your O2 sensor.

Subject: DML: Help passing emissions...

Folks-

I just failed emissions miserably, for CO levels. The engine was
fully warmed up when the test was run (Colorado Emissions test, if
that matters).

I've got ten days to remedy the situation, and I plan on the
following:

1. Burn a tank of gas with FI cleaner (Chevron)
2. Clean TB and all sensors
3. Clean & re-oil K&N
4. Burn a little bit of H2O, using the SpeedTweaks "dixie cup" method

Will these actions contribute to a better CO level? At 29k miles
(most at altitude, running ethanol-oxygenated gas), should I replace
the O2 sensor? Any other suggestions?

Thanks
