Need Help with Passing Smog in San Jose

Can anybody help or recommend a place to take my car in? I failed the smog check twice because it is running a little bit rich. Past problems were the coolant thermo sensor but I changed it to a new one.

Any help is appreciated.

Oh by the way, I need to find a mechanic in the southbay. I've tried the autopalace but just checking who else is in the area.

There's a sticky in this forum for shops. Post your scores and maybe we can help diagnose what's wrong.

he isn't from bay area but all he needs is your paper work. if not PM zerox7 he charges a bit more but he will pass you regardless of what you got.
