Can't seem to find it on the wiki anymore - but I'm sure i read on the forum somewhere - what the acceptable level for emissions were on our aged vans?
Does anyone have this information handy?
Would be useful to have in the back pocket on the day -
Thanks in advance -

Also if the HC is above the limit at idle it can be tested at 2000rpm
