Talking I passed an emissions test!!!!

For the first time since July 2005 I passed an emissions test!! I can't even describe the awkwardness of hearing the technician say "congratulations, you passed"

It's amazing what a working emissions system does for you. I was 13 times over the limit in my FB. Good thing I don't have to worry about it anymore.

25 years is the limit. You've got an '84? You won't have to pass starting next year. As of the first, my '83 is EXEMPT!

What happens is we either get connections to get us a waiver, or we just decide to get the money to do our full build and then tune to pass The latter being my plan, even though I could do the first
