Charlie69 Posted June 1, 2018 Report Share Posted June 1, 2018 See Cody's post #18. Yes, that's what I'm saying. Unless the vehicle is pre 1976, they all have to pass. That does suck because of the CA emmissions standards do not visibly help the air quality. Thank you for clearing that up. I love CA and its varied population but the emission laws suck. 1 Quote Link to comment
Stoffregen Motorsports Posted June 1, 2018 Report Share Posted June 1, 2018 I live here and I don't love it, but my wife will never leave CA so I'm stuck. And a lot of my customers are here, so even if I did live in another state, my CA customer base would necessitate me playing by CA rules. Enough about my problems. If every sate had a "pass-the-pipe" test, that would be the best possible scenario for the builders and owners of these cars and trucks, but the politicians and lobbyists wouldn't get their cut, so it will never happen. SEMA helps a lot, but as they grow, I wonder if they are becoming part of the problem, as they need to justify their existence. 2 Quote Link to comment

That seems to be a theme lately. There's some question from a new guy, no details are offered, no pics are posted, questions are not answered, then they disappear without resolution. 1 Quote Link to comment

Save some time and money, get a manual and a $30 rebuild kit, some newspapers, tools and carb cleaner and rebuild it. Try a new 02 sensor. 1 Quote Link to comment
Stoffregen Motorsports Posted June 3, 2018 Report Share Posted June 3, 2018 Some of the late model carbs are so hard to get the right parts for, since there are so many iterations. Then there's the possibility that you miss something or get something wrong during the rebuild. Small orifices get clogged and figuring out how to clear them can take hours. I would send it out to get rebuilt and spend the time doing other maintenance instead. 1 Quote Link to comment

Dolomite Posted June 3, 2018 Report Share Posted June 3, 2018 It was a few posts about how annoying socal broads are, far from a threadjack. Dude was gone before that even happened, his question was already answered too. Negative points for you too. 2 Quote Link to comment
