Re: Failed!
I keep my new gas cap in the garage to use every two years:
http://www.----------.com/temp/gasCap.jpg They're just like your wiper
blades. My Bronco's last inspection:
http://www.----------.com/temp/smog07.jpg What are your specs?
Always get the car up to full operating temperature, at least twenty
minutes at traffic speed, to enable the catalytic converter to maintain
sixteen hundred degrees to completely reburn all your stuff.

We have state emission stations, they don't fudge because they have no
reason to do so. They don't do repairs, sell parts, etc. and are not
allowed to recommend anyone who does.
The public are not the customers, the state is.
That keeps 'em honest and eliminates public protest.
