does anyone know if there is a car emissions specialist in lanarkshire as my chrysler voyager failed its mot with just the emissions I'm going to give it a full service but a few people has said that they can smell petrol from my exhaust when i start the engine so it might be running rich but I'm not sure i just wanted it checked out before i put it back in for the free retest
 
what are the figures on the emmissions report?

i got the mot done from the local council mot garage m8 ..i never got the slip showing me what the emission were for some reason but the guy just said that my emissions were all over the place Ive not service the car for about 1 and a half years so doing it tomorrow but i don't think that will do it maybe help it a little
 
A service wont do it any harm. get a tin of fuel system cleaner, put it in the tank and like Thommo says boot f##k out it just before you take it for the retest. If it still fails you need a garage to have a look at it, i've seen so many wrongly diagnosed cats and o2 sensors over the years because people are looking at the symtoms and it turns out to be a relitivley simple fault at the back of it.
