This car sails right through the test. Apparently the questionable gulp valve was not an issue.
The gulp valve does not fail to open and sump air rail supply to manifold. That still happens. But air is drawn from the valve into the intake manifold via the vacuum line. This does not seem right. But it seems to have no effect ether on the valve opening and closing properly, or on the smog test. But I should look for a replacement soon. If anyone has the correct later style (without the bold flange) available let me know.
In the mean time, I am attempting to sell the car:

The good news is the smog test is good for 90 days now and does not have to be repeated for title transfer within that time. This is a new law change in California. Used to be you could not use the biennial smog check to also transfer title. A second check was required. No more, though within 90 days.
Enjoy your weekend, everyone!
