Think it could be something to do with the FCD on the car, some of the guys will advise you better... what setting is the FCD at? the number?

No, pre 95 GT's don't need CATS as they don't have an emmissions test to compare it against to, only has to do basic idle test, but affys CO2 is stupidly high??

i have a 96 glanza.
the guy who mot'd mine,
said as its a jap import they dont require a cat test,
maybe laws changed since october.

well its being carried out as non cat anyway - as limit is 3.5%, and should pass easily even with a decat fitted.

something isnt right, whats your fuelling like?? how many miles to a tank do you roughly get??

maybe possible lamba sensor issue causing it to run rich????
