My 93 Z 3.1 is running rich. in Illinois the emmisions standards for hydrocarbons are .80 and my car got a 1.10 there are no check engine lights on or anything. Could the o2 sensor still be bad even if the check engine light isn't coming on? what could cause my car to run rich?

yes the o2 sensor could be bad w/o a check enigne light. have you replaced it any time before?

oh its only like 20 bucks to replace if you have a pep boys or advanced auto or some place like that near you. its pretty easy, just dont do it when the car is hot!!!!!! NOT GOOD!!!!!!!

if im not mistaking, the o2 sensor is the main culprit when it comes to high HC
