Can't remember exactly. I know my CO has always been down near where yours is.
When my car was new, my HC reading was really low, like 2. (Standard, 220.) I
don't remember what the next emissions test showed. But then, at the third (at
about 38k miles?), my HC was like 13. (I guess it's intuitive that it would go
up some with wear.) But, 13 is still really low.
I've taken some automotive classes and the school has a full shop with an
emissions tester. And some of the 5-year-old cars that we deal with in the
shop and plug up to the emissions tester, we struggle to get these cars under
220!
