Way to check Air/Fuel ratio?

Hello all,

I just came back from the emission testing facility and my 95 Max failed. Results:
HC passed
CO passed
NOx failed: at 770 should be 501 ppm

I checked the EGR valve OK and the car was in normal operating temperature.

Here is what I did a few weekes ago... since the last time I passed:
-Installed a Y pipe (It should not be an issue if the car is under normal operating temperature)
-Cleaned the TB
-Replaced 3 injectors (had to remove the intake and cleaned it)
-Cleaned the EGR tubes

How can I determine if it is a excessive lean air/fuel ratio (before I replace the Catalytic)? I am wondering if an injector seal broke when I replaced one of the injectors (I would like not to have to remove the intake to check the seals)

Any ideas?

Thanks for your help,
Stephane

Change your spark plugs and retest.
