I have a 94 chev 1/2 ton 305 TBI that is failing the emission tests. Any
info on the sensors, ohms readings or voltages would be appreciated for
the EGR solinoid, the ohms for each injector, and anything else that would
cause a VERY rich mixture in the TBI. Knock sensor tests ok along with the
EGR valve.........PLEEEEEEEEEESE HELP

Is it only failing hydrocarbons or is it failing NOx and other emissions as
well?

       limit      reading    result
HC ppm     73       255        fail
CO %      0.41      1.06       fail
NO ppm    1160      65         pass

this is all at 1329 rpm simulated highway driving @ 40 KPH. Also the Cat
has just been checked and is clear, plugs replaced, wires replaced this
spring, and the cap cleaned and the rotor also was cleaned. I hope the
readings come out ok in the chart form.

Here are the readings in a better form

item     Limit     Reading     Result
HC ppm     73        255         fail
CO %      0.41       1.06        fail
NO ppm    1160        65         fail

In one chart NOx is pass, the other is fail.  Which is it?

With your HC's and CO being all out of whack, it's running sloppy rich and
there are very few things that can cause this:

1) Faulty CTS
2) Faulty O2 sensor
3) Ruptured Fuel Pressure Regulator diaphram

Checked your ECM for codes yet?

Sorry the NO is a pass, my error, what and where  is the CTS.
Before replacing the plugs, I got a 43 which is the knock sensor(which
tests good) or the ESM (haven't tested it).
What and where is the feul pressure reg. diaphram.

Right now I don't have any codes, but later this morning, I am going to
take it for a drive to test for any codes.

Well, took it for a drive and got a 44 code, with everything connected.
