Half replying because I saw MFR pop open on my screen for the first time in
years.  Perhaps being pedantic here -- but we are geeks -- The act of
clearing the ECU isn't the actual issue here -- there isnt a flag that "you
have cleared the nvram", it's more than the I/M readiness is cleared when
you clear the codes, and to I/M readiness being ok needs the emissions
system needs to run for long enough to cycle through modes (open loop,
closed loop) and observe the oxygen sensors and such working properly.  An
inspection station won't let you pass unless I/M readiness is in a
completed status.
