TR6 Emissions Test

Importance: Normal
My 69 is exempt from emissions testing, but I was curious about the
readings, so I paid the guy $10.00 to do it in training mode. No reports to
the state (BTW Georgia).  It seems that had I been required to be tested I
would have passed, but I am not sure what some of the numbers mean. I
browsed through Bentley's looking for the CO numbers, but all its says is to
make them normal without ever telling what normal is. Anyway, here are the
results, comments desired.

                2500 RPM                950 RPM
          Reading       Allowed Reading Allowed
HC-ppm  75      600             299             600
CO%             2.44    6.00            .47             6.00
CO+CO2% 15.7    6.00(min)       14.1            6.00(min)

Of other interest was that the database did not have TR6 as a 6 cylinder, it
insisted it was a 4 cyl.

So what should CO be and what do the others mean?
