So, my Maxima *just* missed passing emissions last time. MD tests 3 things, NOx, CO, and HC. HC it passed but NOx and CO it was just out of spec on. I don't have the specific numbers here, but I could get them if it would be helpful. Any suggestions about what I can do to help the car pass? I am already planning to install a new O2 sensor (car probably needs it anyway), and the car had a new pre-cat and cat about 2 years ago. AFAIK they are still good. I've heard that a little alcohol in the gas tank will help. Any truth to it? Any other tricks like that? Like I said, it was close so just a little "bump" would probably do it.
