NOX Failure

by Bob DeP. AskBob@stretcher.com




Bob,
What is known as a nox failure in emissions testing?
Thank you!
Tiffany B.

Tiffany,
It is called NOX. NOX is short for oxides of nitrogen. It is a by-product of combustion. Basically it means your system is running too lean (not enough fuel). There are not too many ways to correct this problem other than the EGR system and/or replacing the catalytic converter. Make sure that the fuel pressure is correct. To low pressure could also cause this.

Good Luck!
Drive Safely!
Bob, The Auto Answer Man
