I have 96 Sportage which has recently developed bad emission problems, 2 years ago i fitted a new cat so i can,t imagine it being that, could it be a problem with a air hose ? or could it be worse?

Maybe usefull if you can give a bit more information?

Type of emission problems. i.e. Smoke?

Mileage

Fuel type

Last serviced

Engine warning light on?

First impression would be to change the Air and fuel filters.

More info the better.

the car is due a service, i always use a good unleaded fuel, the emissions were a failure on the M,O,T last week, all the readings were too high. The engine warning light will normally come on when the car hits about 2,500 revs in top gear
