I am setting this thread up for everyone to post actual emissions test data results, along with any other pertinent performance or non-oem upgrade data, and details of differences from state to state or county (parish) to county differences in test limits and test styles. This will be for 87-95 4.0 jeeps primarily, as the 96 and new jeeps use the OBD-II system as a pass / fail no tail pipe test method that yilds no data to the best of my knowledge.
Here is my data:
THere seems to be different tests used in Texas, at least here in Harris county.
The 89, 121,000 miles on the odo, recently replaced the head gasket, this one gets exceptional mileage, so far 17-18 in the city mixed, 24 highway reported by PO before the head job, 2 WD had the following results using the "ASM", actual load test, test in Texas, Harris County.
standard @ high speed ...................................low speed
HC (ppm)189...............mine was 123 .................194..............mine 30
CO% 2.36...................mine was .44 ................1.74...............mine .44
CO2 % N/A.................mine was 14.2 .................N/A...............mine 14.2 NOx(ppm)..1233............mine 0.0........................1340............mine 0.0
O2 % N/A...................mine was 0.0 ...............N/A..............mine 0.0
Dilution......<6...............Mine 14.6....................>6..............mine 14.6
Then my 87 4x4 which is not load tested here (they won't run 4X4's on the dyno here for some reason), but it was tail pipe sniff tested using a "2 speed idle test", and this has lower MPGs than the 89 (10-17), about 35% lower, 256,000 on the odo, had:
standard @ high speed ...................................low speed
HC (ppm)220...............mine was 8 .................220..............mine 28
CO% 1.2...................mine was .04 ................1.20...............mine .13
CO2 % N/A.................mine was 14.9 .................N/A...............mine 14.7 NOx(ppm)..1233............mine 0.0........................1340............mine 0.0
O2 % N/A...................mine was 5.1 ...............N/A..............mine 5.4
Dilution......<6...............Mine 14.9....................>6..............mine 14.8
Both passed. Both are OEM, except single platinum (autolight brand spark?) plugs (IIRC). Both run between 190 to 205 F. Both are AW4, with 3.54 rear ends.
