My westfalia is idling inside the garage as I write this, and I am sitting in the back seat. I am curious what you guys think could be the issue causing such a high percentage of CO (8%). Hydro carbons are high too.. Take a look at the printed results !

1985 westfalia 180k avarage 18/19mpg 1.9l

As my brain was melting, I struck an idea to use the internets to search for my question and, low and behold, there were results.

anyways, still curious what your collective input is - maybe there are known failures that I am currently unaware of. the air filter is clean, so I suspect to begin checking sensors. First things first I will unplug the O2 sensor and check for any running changes, if none, I know it's faulty. So on and so forth..

thanks
