i am going to change my water thermo sensor or coolant temp sensor since that has been what ive been told to fix my cold start problem... i am also going to change my o2 sensor and put a brand new cat in and drive to the smog place and it should pass. im also getting my injectors cleaned and new o-rings.... any other suggestions to make it pass? does anyone have diagram that shows where/how air pump goes on and any hoses that go to it? any suggestions on my cold start problem or anything else i should do? im also changing the plugs and air filter.

 

You seem to have a good idea. Only thing I can think to add would be an oil change.

Theres many diagrams for the airpump/etc here:

If you do all that you mentioned you should pass no problem. . .

Then again you are in CA. . I'm used to east coast emissions.

Good Luck.

If you fail, post again with the numbers, etc.

 

where is water thermo sensor located and or coolant sensor?

 

The thermo sensor is on the back of the water pump by the alternator. It's shown in this thread, 4th post.

if you have a adjustable fuel regulator lower it and find someone that you know that does the test to hook it up.my little brother does emissions and pass my car on the test took him two days but he got it done. because i have a 3inch downpipe and no cats,it was very hard had to do alot but thats what i mean i you know someone it makes it easier

 

wtf is an adjustable fuel regulator? where is it located? is it in the ECU?

 

first of all what exactly is done to your car as far as mods and such? if it's fairly stock, it shouldn't take much to pass at all
