Default Trouble smogging 95

I’ve been having trouble smogging my 95 base. It’s got new cats, new o2 sensors, the injectors were cleaned, the MAF was cleaned. There’s no exhaust leaks. Any ideas?

The CO level is high and the HC barely missed it

Since you have a ‘95, you could actually do some datalogging to see if there are any parameters out of wack. There’s a great program called EEHack that only works on 94-95 Corvettes, so you’re kind of lucky in that way. Should you choose to try that route, all you need is a USB cable and a laptop.

USB Cable: http://aldlcable.com/products/aldlobd2u.asp
EEHack: http://fbodytech.com/eehack-2/download-eehack/

The things I would be interested in is the O2 response, the MAF response, the low and high res opti signals, the IAC counts, and the coolant temperature.

Weird how my Corvettes didn't have the issue. Nah, must be California's problem, not a problem with the car.

Yeah, if those politicians didn't make so much smog we wouldn't need emissions testing.
