My jeep failed inspection. The inspection facility said the emissions were too high. Whats a cheap fix?
Thanks for your help
I live in NJ

 

Which emissions were too high, are there any DTC's set??? They either should have told you or gave you a print out

 

I live in California, and we have smog checks.
Right before I have my '89 XJ (w/ 180+K Mi.) tested, I replace the air filter element and give the engine a tune-up...but most importantly, I have the oil changed IMMEDIATELY before the test...yes, at the Oil Changers a block away from the smog test place.
HTH!

 

That doesn't help me too much, did they give you a readout on the gasses and what the reading were in ppm (parts per million) or whichever measurement they use? ex. If your HC (hydrocarbons) are too high, that will indicate a misfire and/or an extremely rich running condition.

 

I think I found your problem, right there....

Just kidding....

 

make sure your cat and your o2 sensor are both good. and then before you take it in make sure the jeep is fully warmed up.
