Hi Lee, >>>>if a car has a slight misfire at idle speed wouldn't this increase the CO content>>>> No! A popular misconception is that poor combustion and misfires cause an increase in CO. Infact the opposite is so as CO is a product of combustion, therefore if less combustion takes place for a given amount of air and fuel then less CO will will be produced but more HC ie unburnt fuel. This is as I understand it. Mike |
