Can a leaky booster cause high NOx?
I was just reading on the web that one of the many causes of high NOx levels are vacuum leaks. Would a leaky brake booster be considerd a "vacuum leak"?
Any other ideas on High NOx levels but other emission levels are really low.

yes a vacuum leak can casue high nox becasue it's unmeterd air and unmetred air will make a car run lean. nox is created by excessive pressure and combustion temps in excess of 2500 degrees, casue by lean conditions.

Thanks. Unfortunately, that's what I thought.
