Anyone have a good web site for info on troubleshooting emissions, as in if you fail CO, what to look for ? etc

Thanks

High CO readings indicate too much fuel. There isn't much on your car as far as emissions go. Check the carb first. Also,make sure that your charcoal canister isn't feeding fuel into the carb.
You may want to pull the plugs to see if all of the cylinders are running rich or is it just a couple. If all the plugs are indicating rich then check the carb. If it's just one or two,then check cylinder compression, etc.
Good luck!

Guys;

Thanks for the help. Once I get moved into the new digs, I'll try and sort out the carb etc.

Thanks again, and have a happy, healthy and safe New Year!!
