    It is my understanding that you renew your subscription every three years - for hobbyists it remains free. Of course they can change the terms any time so it's good to have a backup plan.

    In my case when I had high NOx, the fuel mixture was too lean because it was adjusted to compensate for the unmetered air leaks. Or at least that's how I remembered it.

    My car was also missing the o-ring under the fuel distributor. Not sure if it makes a huge difference but it is still technically a leak.

    I had similarly high levels of O2, CO, and NO in my exhaust on my first emissions test. My car was also classified as a "gross polluter." I had already done a basic tune-up (replaced the plugs,...

    There are several owners in your area who are knowledgeable about their cars. I would recommend reaching out to them. Maybe even have a weekend tech day.

    I'm genuinely curious to hear your results using the DGo cat. As far as I'm aware, the cat needs to be "CARB compliant" in CA, or at least have a sticker indicating such.

    Purely anecdotal, but my fans kick on around the 160F mark and generally run for a couple of minutes. 10 minutes seems like a long time at idle to cycle off?

    I would suspect the thermostat is closed shut preventing the water from passing through the pump. They're designed to open when the water is hot enough.
