It's an indication that your idle mixture needs adjusting mate.
Should be a screw on the AFM if it's an M20

Check the air filters not minging too dude.
plug gaps affect the emits also.
the ajuster screw on the AFM should be viewed as a last resort TBH if its that high.
How bad we talking ??

depends how bad the cO is . the best way to do this is a tappet adjustment first then followed by the adjustment of the air mass meter screw....
failing that just check(but this needs to be done with a fault code reader) your coolant temp. or just change it for a new one.
good luck! shout me for more advice.
