You want us to guess? Maybe you should post the sheet that they gave you.

The high %O2 readings are prompting you to look for an exhaust leak.

high hydro carbons means unburnt fuel... that would mean your catalytic converter isn't not working efficiently.. probably needs replaced. also be sure to run the fuel the car is designed for 87. if running 93 in a low compression car that requires 87 will leave a lot of unburnt fuel as it takes longer to burn off... the motor just doesn't create enough heat to burn it all off.
