Here are a few things you should do when smog testing your vehicle. #1. Make sure the vehicle is hot. Drive it for 15 or 20 minutes, don't just drive to the smog shop on the corner and then let it sit for an hour before it is tested. If you can get on the freeway and really jump on it, blow all that crap out of the cars system.
#2. Find a good shop and stick with that shop. #3. Get a tune-up first, especially if you have an older car, or any car you have doubts about passing. If you can't afford a tune-up buy a set of plugs and change them out yourself. #4. Go to you local auto parts store and buy a can of stuff guaranteed to ensure you pass smog (usually about $8 - $12 ask the sales guy for what works best). You usually have to mix it with a full tank of gas and then run the entire tank of gas before bringing the vehicle in for the smog test. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:196892 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
