is there any way to get an 84 rx7 with a 12a motor to pass emissions without the airpump the car did great in the driving test well below average but the idle test killed me it got 1445 ppm for hydrocarbons the max allowable is 419 ppm i just bought this car for 950 bucks and dont have alot of money to put into it
the old owner took out all the emissions controls , is there any quik and easy fix any help would be much appreciated i love this car it f'in rips

 

do you hear a meow in the car? might need cats

 

I order to get it to pass you need to have the air pump in place and working as well as the cats and emission equipment.

Post a WTB thread in your regional forum for the pump and any missing emission items. Someone will probably have those items for very cheap.

 

I have an airpump and stock exhaust for an 83 you can have if you want them. The exhaust is manifold and both cats. They are somewhat clogged, but will probably pass emissions. I can't guarantee that since I never had mine tester with them on. PM me if interested. I just need to get them out of the garage so if free is cheap enough let me know.

 

Partially clogged cats is not an offer of help, only more trouble.

It may be possible to pass emissions with just the air pump and a a rotary rated replacement cat such as the one in the following link.

Best option is to restore the emissions systems to stock, then remove after inspection.

 

keep it safe in a locked location. some guy stole my cats. i'm pissed off at that

 

If offering a part to someone for free is no help at all I guess I am a little confused. The air pump worked perfectly when I removed it and I think the cats are clogged, I didn't confirm that. I removed everything while I was just getting the car running. Anyway I can take them to the metal yard if he doesn't want them. No skin off my back.

 

Yes, you are confused. Offering partially clogged cats won't help the original poster, only cause him more grief. Critical reading is important if one wants to help/contribute to the forum. You apparently neglected to so as I said nothing concerning the rest of your offer, only the partially clogged cats.
