Hydrocarbons (HC) :

State Standards : 1.4000 GPM
My Results : 7.0578 GPM FAIL!!!!

Carbon Monoxide (CO) :

State Standards : 30.0000 GPM
My Results (Which I'm kinda proud of ) 286.1601 GPM FAIL!!!

Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx)

State Standards : 2.5000 GPM
My Results : 0.3114 GPM PASS!!!

Ok so what can make me fail 2/3 and why would I pass the third?

I'm pretty sure I had a gas leak from the fuel pump to the carb when I got tested the first time which is now fixed. A little info for ya.
this appears to be an overly rich running engine....co is way too high...

I bet your plugs are black in color not a light brown..too much gas not enough oxygen....could be EGR ...
