Enrico,
Its hard to tell because the numbers got jumbled in
cyberspace, but it appears that your hydrocarbons and
CO are too high and that there is no oxygen in the
exhaust. That would suggest to me that your mix is
too rich and consuming all the oxygen and not
consuming all the fuel, hence the HC and the high CO.
>From this the first thing I would suspect is a bad
oxygen sensor, since with 0% O2 in the exhaust, the O2
sensor should be doing *something*!
Check the O2 sensor and see what's happening.
Regards,
Ben Pender
