Failed Emissions Test
Failed Emissions Test
My KLZE with K8 ecu + K8 vaf has just failed emissions:
Hydrocarbons - 6 times the limit at 2.17g/km<p>Carbon Monoxide - 6 times the limit at 53g/km<p>but the good news(?) is that NOx is 50% of the limit so it passed for that - so I get the EGR works ok!<p>What do you think the best way to pass is as I've been told I should be ok with just a KL-02 VAF or should I get a KL55 ecu as well to match the VAF?<p>thanks!

Re: Failed Emissions Test
u should get a kl36 ecu from sean (lazzy), this will make ur car run less rich and give u better gas mileage and power. get that and a fpr, lean out ur motor and try again.

Did you test your car as an Mx-3, or a Modified Vehicle?

Re: Failed Emissions Test
it was tested as an mx-3, I don't know if British Columbia has any rules about modified engines etc. I'll try and find out. <p>I put a KL-02 VAF on last night and I;ll see what that does to the emmissions when I take it later on today - there is a noticeable difference in power and I had to reset the idle as well - maybe the KL-02 vaf will run the KLZE a lot leaner as it will increase the amount of air coming to the amount of fuel the k8 ecu is giving?
Re: Failed Emissions Test
Finally!!!!<p>with KL-02 vaf & k8 ecu my KLZE is clean enough to pass emmissions! In fact it was so clean it got a fast pass half way through the test cycle.<p>The HC/CO/NO are all less than 50% of the standard,<p>thanks everyone for your help over the last couple of weeks in doing the swap

Re: Failed Emissions Test
I've been told the klze ecu doesn't support the egr which means automatic emissions fail in most places....
Re: Failed Emissions Test
So let's see if I have this right - <p>The KL02 VAF is from the KLDE engine, which lots of people call the KL03 engine, because lots of the parts are stamped KL03 (but not the VAF)
Re-shaped and re-sized gearshift lever. Best driveability mod you can do!

yes - the exact number was KL02 197200 070

Re: Failed Emissions Test
k8 ecu is better with o3 vaf , mine didn't even pass the modified test
13.023 @ 105 mph
Re: Failed Emissions Test
How do you get a modified test done, whatdo you have to do b4 goin to test?
