AFAIK only obd2 cars and light truck [under10,000 lbs 4500 kg are etested every 2 years after they are 7 yrs old Commercial vehicles over 4500 kgs notwithstanding.
OBDI cars have to be put on the dyno in Houston..yet every inspection place will claim their dyno is down, or the tech is out because they don't want to do them. Yet, the state inspects them all the time and if the dyno is down and not fixed straight away, they will lose their license
My 1994 Impala SS was tailpipe. My 1998 1/2 ton pickup was scanned. 2500 series trucks are considered commercial even if owned by a provate citizen like me and are tail pipe. Deisel are 3 to 5 minutes with no black smoke at idle. 1987 and older are etest exempt.
Ron...no. My 1994 Impala required the tial pipe test. My 1998 pickup was the computer. My two 2500 pickups are tail pipe as they are deemed commercial. A mechanic friend said diesels have to idle for either 3 or 5 minutes with any black smoke and they pass. It's nothing but a cash cow for the govt.
Jeremy...underneath that truck the brake and fuel lines are a mess. The bottom of the drivers door is almost flapping in the breeze. I just priced a fuel pump at 425 plus 13 percent sales tax if it needs one. It's good money after bad...
I thought you said it’s rusty Brad? That’s a gem! Might want to start masking the plate number unless you want crackhead stalker types tracking you down.
when you take money, then you are responsible for anything that happens to them as long as they own the car. In this case, you find just how incredibly stupid most people are today
Matt from Sloppy Mechanics beating the crap out of a Dodge Demon on the dyno...710 to the back tire. I'm headed out to buy some lottery tickets...[link]
He's a young lad and doesn't know a wrench from a screwdriver and isn't mechanically inclined. I'd be wrenching on it non stop...and I'm too old. Dan and I are dropping the engine in my GN...and I'm cruising for the summer.
