please help with my 560sec aircare!! (with results)

Hi, im getting no help in the tech section so anyone that can give me any advice would be very helpful

i have a 1991 560 sec i have failed air care 4 times thinking about trying some methol hydrate this time around. I already had a new cat installed along with new plugs and O2 sensor... what els can i do? should i go with the MH i was told to fill up around 10L of gas and put 1l of MH then drive for around 30 min before taking it in..

to see the air care results type in my vin to this link

VIN- WDB1260451A607941

only suggestion is reg her up country then switch back.
your numbers look way up,
usually when u play with mixture u either get HC lower then N0x raise, but u get both up then is not a good sign.
used to have a 300se failed 5 x too, i sold her in the end w/o AC.
now i drive oil burner, lots happier. no need to kow tow to the airscare ****, the worse is the moment when they go to pull the print out. Is no worse than a judge decided whether u get the chair or nyet.

i was told our get out of jail free card will be in here within 2 yrs. That is air care free.
i can see they're not making $ at the aircare, as older cars are disappearing plus new cars can be checked by idiot lights on the dash.
already newer cars were exempted.
and probably our govt had this clause of guaranteeing them air care co a minimum amount of biz everyday.
when it first came out the line up can be 3/4 hrs and results are totally a variable from stn to stn.
welcome to BC or bring cash.
there're one other marginal trick for high speed but yours is sadly FUBR
cheers
