To the kind folks of The Mini Forum,
My 1993 Rover Mini SPi failed its MOT last week due to too high emissions of carbon monoxide (10%), and a lambda-value of around 0,7.
Things worth mentioning about my Mini:
- I have changed the exhaust-system to one with a banana manifold. During that operation I also changed the catalytic converter and the lambda-sensor.
- The mini is idling at around 1200rpm (too high)
- It is spitting a bit out the exhaust especially under startups, but also during idling.
Is this a familiar problem to any of you? And do you have any good tips and tricks for bringing down the emissions?
All help will be welcomed with open arms!
Thanks a lot in advance.
