Re: 1986 'Nuttered' CJ7 4.2L Canadian Emissions Data
I think I will have to do one more
in 08
as this test will cover my renewal for 2006 then skips 2007 then 2008
another test.
somehow I got away with not having to have the test done when it transfer
owners they are letting me ride till 2006 plate renewal but I want to get it
done while I have the money....
well time for me to drive it to the garage now

Good luck, please let us know.
My 86 will no longer have to pass any more tests! The next one is due
in 2007 and it will be over 20 years old then.

Re: 1986 'Nuttered' CJ7 4.2L Canadian Emissions Data
Good luck, please let us know.
My 86 will no longer have to pass any more tests! The next one is due
in 2007 and it will be over 20 years old then.

Re: 1986 'Nuttered' CJ7 4.2L Canadian Emissions Data
You should come meet us on our camping runs, We wheel just north of
Kingston in the Bon Echo Park area and if you spent a couple days with
some notice I could bring my tune up tools along and we could spend an
afternoon by the lake fishing with a couple cold ones while tweaking up
the old 4.2...
I have to/should stop by Kingston soon anyway, the gent that built my
CJ7's 'glass body lives there and he offered to help me fix the crack
that happened when I rolled her.
