Passed.

OK, While my car is still idling pretty erratic and being just plain weird until you hammer it, I took a chance, rolled the dice and decided to go have it tested anyway. It passed! Actually, on all but the Hydrocarbons, it burnt clean as a whistle. HC's barely squeaked by at low RPMs but were in the upper middle range at higher RPMs. Now that it has passed, I'll worry about the little stuff a lot less and work it out at my leasure.

Rod.

happy for ya that you passed. Smog here would kill us red neck's
My club's 260Z would not pass right now due to she's runin around 80% ritch in fuel so ritch that she won't even idel. But luckly we don't have smog here in the boonies.

NIce.. I remember I went to emissions 2 months early just so I would know what I would need to do, and it passed first try with no probs (they didnt even notice I removed the carbon canister)

Congrats on passing! I'm so looking forward to my day with the gas analyzer next year... If they didn't do a visual it'd be all good.

Glad to hear Rod, now that is one less thing to worry about for a while. Props to you, and now you can concentrate on other things.
