Hydrocarbons are unburnt fuel particles exiting the exhaust system. Primary cause is usually vacum leaks in and around the intake manifold. You may also have a rich burn condition due to a clogged up throttle valve. And also check and clean the AFM. But first and foremost check for leaking vacum. How far over did he go? what % of normal.
