Just picked up a '94M 80 1.6 base model. On the road it feels like the mileage at 98k is accurate, it's pretty smooth running with no real hiccups or stutters,
however, during an emissions test the level of hydrocarbon was over 1500ppm, the limit for uk mot is 200ppm,
The tester offered no suggestion as to any solution, I was wondering if any forum members could help to point me in the right direction of diagnosis.
The car certainly does not "smell" of burning oil, and there is no audible excessive engine noise, or smoke. The CO was a healthy 0.9% in the same test.
Anyway, all suggetions considered, :)
