No problem.. sorry to the OP, I'm not really trying to hurt your feelings or anything (I know.. so unusual for an e-thug like me..), but the reality is, there are few "quick fix" solutions out there for fixing Aircare issues like nearly 2x the HC emissions. If you were closer with your levels, eg. you were just barely above the pass mark, then I'd suggest something like the methyl hydrate or swap out a sensor for a new one. But if you have no check engine light, therefore no codes set (not to say there aren't pending codes.. but most pending codes will come up when Aircare scans your OBD2 port)... there isn't much to be gained by throwing a quick fix at it. You have some sort of more serious issue as to why the hydrocarbons are so high.
