I got my car inspection done today and failed the emmision test....ne body noe y?...i have a y-pipe and short ram air intake...n i jus changed the spark plug...Do i have to drive for 30 mins before gettin it inpected.

 

Damn how'd that happen? I passed with a Y pipe, CEL w/ bad knock sensor, 02 senso, map and crank sensor...

 

lol i failed and needed about 900 dollars of parts to pass, i was like heres 40 give me the sticker

 

You should get the car fully heated up first since you have a y-pipe. The precats in the stock y-pipe would make it all good, but since you don't have them (who does here right ) you need to have the main cat up to temp.

 

If you had failed due to hydrocarbons go back and take off your air filter before you do. It will solve the problem. For some reason it **** the hydrocarbon levels

 

do u mean that i should take it off rite before the car is being inspected

 

no leave the filter on just make sure ur temp is up. or the eng warmed. and make sure u have no cels

 

k....jus to be on the safe side i'll drive for a while, 20 minz or so...thanx all of u for ur help.

 

Just move to florida and no more inspections lol.

 

Hey ANT where did u go to get it passed with all that stuff? Sounds like the place I need to go next time.
