Exclamation Failed emissions - HELP

I failed the emission test on the Limited I picked up.

ASM 2525 test (fast idle/simulate driving)
---------------------------------------------
HC ppm - failed with a 144 (limit - 106)
CO% - failed with a 0.74 (limit - 0.59)
NO ppm - passed with a 774 (limit 1164)
RPM - 1180

Curb idle - pass everything

Can someone tell me what the "limits" are for the ASM 2525 (fast idle). I've been told the limits are suppose to be higher!!

The car is completely stock (except for K&N). For my retest... I've put in new plugs (CR43 gapped @ .035), new wires, changed oil, reset TPS to .42/.44 (was between .48 to .52 on my scanmaster & turbolink)

One thing I notice is the my BLM count is hoovering around 148 @ idle. My white TTYPE was always around 128!!! Why is that & what do I need to do to lower it?? wink

Another question... What kind of number would I get if I had a hollow cat. I can't check because the exhuast system is all welded in.

any help would be greatly appreciated... dave
