I was going to ask you something Chris, you mentioned that the cat doesnt affect co2, just hc and nox?
Well nox is not an mot tested gas (wrongly, but there we are), also neither is CO2, it's CO. Interestingly, my understanding of a cat is that it converts CO into CO2. lpg incidentally increases Nox....
Well COab, as someone allready mentioned the K was designed in the 80's, so hardly a spring chicken. If its not up to the job thats it - And if you want I'll list its failings in 1.8 turbo form?(thats not to say I think its a pile of poo, I don't. In fact I think it's a marvel of its time, and at 1400, be it wet or damp liner a cracking engine. Also goes to prove that BL's engineers weren't that far out when they penned a 3 cylinder...
