guess what i got in the mail today

EMISSION TEST NOTICE!

son of a 6!†©h is all i can say

I'm guessing im gonna fail right off since i have a the light on for the cam sensor and "manufacturers control" whatever the fack that is

Added to my list of states NOT to live in:

1. CA
2. MA
3. IL

Sorry to hear, man. What happens if you don't pass? What happens if you don't show?

Bummer.... no testing in ND or MN. MN tried it but gave up.

well suspended license for sure and probly fines if i don't show up or fail like 3 times or don't fix it within some grace period. whats really queer is if i lived about a mile or so west, i wouldn't be tested. my friend moved to that area and just in time because he finished building his 78 malibu with swapped engine and exhaust system, obviously no cats.

I think im kinda screwed though. i could actually pass the gas analyzation (sp)(real word?) and get past it but im pretty sure im screwed which is bs! i fudged the test with my 95 grand am i had but i dont think im doin it with this car

anyone replaced a cam sensor before on this?

Added a state for you

And another

In NC,
'96 and newer gets an emissions inspection.
'95 and older gets what they call a safety inspection.
Anything older than 35 years doesn't require any inspection!

SIMPLE...Put in a change of address and use your friends mailing address.

in new jersey we have to get inspected for safety and emissions every 2 years. Never thought it was a big deal tho, i guess because it's all i know.

Dude, just come by crete, i can take care fo all of that for you, i got an extra cam sensor and hptuners and an 02 simulator. Ill make sure you pass. I did
what year is your car?

We have to get an inspection every year. Safety is every year and emissions is every other year.

that's for reminding me, I need a new sticker. on both

id love to go for a safety inspection... i wonder if my 6 point harnesses would offset the 2 tanks of NOS in my trunk

ive got 2 credits left which is one car, but if you need it, ill do it. what year is you car, it may be cheaper to just get all of that year. but more than just my car, yeah, it just takes more credits, im going to florida tomarrow moring so ill be gone for week. but ill let you know some more once i check out the hptuners site.

Nah, Fla is fine. I can put up with the heat, and Florida has some good things going for it, like perfect roads (less construction!), and legal U-turns!

Arizona has emissions also. It was really hard getting the Turbo cars through but now AZ passed a law for 15 yr and older cars so I can now insure them as collectable with no emissions. No more draining tanks, changing injectors, putting the cat back on etc etc.

Ok so I passed the test today
I fixed the wiring and stuff so that's all good but I just have the PO420 catalyst inefficiency code that comes up after a couple trips so I cleared that code and drove to the testing place and passed woohoo! Huge load off my back.

Anyway, it's not a big deal. Basically if the MIL is off and there isnt black smoke pouring out the front of the car, you're good.

IL emissions ain't that bad
A programmer could pass it no matter what. They don't do anything sneaky at all on OBDII

Congrats, good to hear! Kudos for keeping the Riv on the road.

added another we have testing but thats not the prollem i just hate it hear

FL has no testing, take er off "the list"
if you cant take the FL heat, move to an emission's state.
i'm so glad we dont have it any more. i would probably pass, even though i dont have a cat, so long as they dont look under the car. my SES light almost never comes on for low cat efficiency. (kinda weird actually) i can sit idle all day, drive it hard, hot or cold, and i have no 02 sim, yet the only time i get an 02 code is on long trips sustained around 65/70mph(if i do 80 the whole way it wont set it either). i guess i just run so effieciently, i dont even need a cat.
