also, they have things you can dump into your gas tank to help out. looks like your not that far off.

i think i've heard something about putting alcohol in your gas tank. but dont qoute me on this, i dont want TT_Titanium or whatever his name is to blow up on me. lol

HAN SOLO said it best in star wars "its the fastest piece of junk in the galaxy !" LOL or in my universe it is... doesn't matter if you car has more power, mods, cool things. Nothing beats being proud of working on your own car and fixing it when things go wrong. that feeling is more priceless than being owned by a faster car...
because at least you have a strong sense of self-worth. when everything works out.

Hold your horses, I just read this thread....

Your main problem is that your FC isnt in the junkyard. I junked mine a long time ago and all my smog worries went away

In other words, JUNK IT!
