Correct emissions for mfi xr3i
Hi can someone tell me the correct gas analyser readings to set up the fuel mixture on my
89 xr3i MFI escort?
A garage I am going to is willing to set the mixture and idle for me as it is now out and idling high/too lean or rich since fixing all air leaks on the engine but the mechanic says he doesn't know the exact CO% it should be at running temp.
On the mot test last week it was reading at 1.26% CO with 377HC

Yeah everything is right with the engine now I've spent a lot of time on it but the previous owner had it set before fixing anything.
So if around 1.5 is where I need to be would the fact it's running at around 1.25 make enough of a difference that if feels like it's under fueling? Because when I'm in lower gears it just feel like it wants to go and splutters a bit but is fine cruising at 30+ and also the idle is too high.

Set the idle correctly before going near the CO.
.25% will make a marginal difference. Sounds like something else isnt right if its spluttering under 30 tho
