After I replaced what I mentioned above I lowered the HC by only 30ppm so at 250ppm I FAILED again.
The 4runner is running better than it ever has I'm getting a sold 22mpg and it purrs with no miss, so I was sure it would pass.

Last night, when I got home I came across this thread,"How to Pass Smog" in there some where someone mentions how they get the HC lowered by retarding the timing and bumping up the idle just pass 1000rpm someone mentions to add a bottle of isoproply alcohol to the gas. It was good stuff to read, I wish I would have read it sooner <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

So now I will try to go to a non emissions testing county here in Texas and see if I could get a inspection sticker there. Then if I can't, I will try the alcohol, timing, idle adjustment I mentioned above. If all else fails a brand new cat to replace the 1yr old cat or maybe two cats ,meow...

...anyway comments or advise are welcome
