ok emmisions are at 4.5%

and idealy should be around 1.5% but at least below 3.5%max

is it just a case of twiddeling the afm adjuster??

mot man is gonna do it for me but wants me to find out first
as he has had some older cars that need plugging into some sort of electronic tester do be done

cheers for any advice

Along with an exhaust gas analyzer twiddling the AFM adjusts the idle mixture.
