Default 1991 Nissan Stanza Failed Emision Test in Metro-DC.


I have a Nissan Stanza 1991. It passed Emission tests since I got it in
2001. But this year it failed in all the three tests NOx, HC, and CO.

The car has 197K+ on it.

I change the O2 more than a year ago (I got the BOSCH universal O2
sensor on it). Oil was due to be changed by the time of the test but I
didn't change it. I have never changed the CAT on it. By the way, does
the CAT get fixed or they just need to be replaced? (Excuse my
ignorance).

I noticed before sometime before the test some blue smog coming out of
the exhaust when I start it but it goes away in a little while.

I had put in the fuel tank a bottle of some Smog Reduction additives.
It was already in the tank the car test with.
