failed emissions big time - high co

I have a 1990 900 non turbo with 199,000 miles. It passed NY emissions test at 195,000 miles. I just took it for Connecticut emissions and it failed in spectacular fashion. I ran a couple bottles of RXP through a couple of full tanks and failed again. The numbers are so far off, I wonder if anyone might have a clue.
Here were the limits and my results
HC(PPM)
limit 150
score 417
CO(%)
limit 1.00
score 7.38
NOx(PPM)
limit 1750
score 173
According to the report the catalyst is fine. I took it to a echanic who told me it might take him 5 or 6 hours just to figure out what's wrong and thats at $70 bucks an hour. Unfortunetly, I can't afford that and am stuck as what to do next.
Any ideas?
I appreciate any help. Thank You,
Louis
