Just taken my 205 GTi for its MOT, and it failed on the HC emmissions, which measured around 1500ppm, which is above the 1200ppm limit. The CO level was fine, I assume around 2.0% from when I last measured it.
Any ideas of why the HC was so high? The engine was fully warmed up, so that shouldn't be an issue. Could the ignition timing need retarding, or might a weak spark cause this problem? It uses the LE2 Jetronic system, so has no cat, and a pretty simple setup.
