Hey guys!
I'm having a problem with my NOx emissions. The readings are as
follows
HC - 0.05g/mile
CO - 0.2 g/mile
NOx - 2.09g/mile
The car ( 94 Geo prizm 1.8L) has only 84k miles on it.
>From the readings, it seems my CO is extremely low, since the max limit
is about 90 times higher than what I'm emitting. What do you think the
problem might be? Too lean?
Thanks a lot in advance!

My CO is extremely low, since the max limit is about 90 times
higher than what I'm emitting. What could be the problem?
_________________________________________________
There is no problem with the CO if it is only 1/90th of the limit .
There is no problem with the NOx unless it exceeds some limit.
There is no problem with the HC unless it exceeds some limit.
So there is no problem.

Sorry, just to clarify, the NOx limit is 1.99g/mile. So my car is over
the limit, thus the questions. :-) Thanks again!

Your EGR valve is clogged or more likely your EGR passages are
clogged.
