My car is now outside this states emmission testing age. My car was built and dated as an 84, it is now twentyfive years old . What I was aiming at was the obvious drooling of gasoline at idle. Man! the garage stunk from gasoline at startup and after returning. 11 times the hydro carbon limit is a waist of gasoline. Cruise is great, just what I'd think you would want It's the idle that needs attention. The emmission standards were just a target. I never thought I would ever reach actuall emmission standards. I intend on getting into it this coming summer. I think it would make the engine more "crisp" If my idle was a little leaner. I curently don't consider this engine "crisp" off idle. I've had engines that were a lot more "crisp" from idle.
