There is some other issue as well with the engine if it has failed emissions testing.
Have the vehicle scanned to see what other fault codes if any have been generated and to see what irregularities there may be with the operation of the engine. It may well be failing emissions because it is running too rich or it could be for numerous other reasons.

SOURCE: wont complete scan to pass emission test
When you rest your codes there is a series of tests your ECU has to go through before you can pass emissions. this is done some people can reset the code and go before its sets the code again. on the 96 you can have 2 tests not complete for it to pass. basicly you have to drive the car a couple days for the tests to pass.
check the readiness tests wait until only 2 have not passed. then you should be good.so drive and check.

P0600 is the loss of serial communication link. Generally this is a problem with the wiring in the OBD-II or between the ECU and the connector. Of these is a fault in the ECU. Do you recive any other codes?
