i will never see the phrases ever again:

4 point calibration due
gas leak check required
low flow detected
leak detected

we took the damn hoses and antenna tach thing that never fuckin works and flung them on top of the office today, thank you dmv, for once

1/2/2006 5:42:13 PM

we had developed elaborate ways to fool ours into passing leak check.

1/2/2006 5:46:24 PM

our hose had been ripped apart ten million times from dumbasses like me backing out with it still in there

1/2/2006 6:48:56 PM

yeah ive done that, but a new hose from carolina auto supply house in charlotte was less than $30.

the machine was a peice of shit but it was a valuable tool for setting idle mixture on carb vehicles and detecting HC that were entering the cooling system on blown head gaskets though

That was MY favorite use of one.

so obd1 = no more butt-pipe check ?

1/2/2006 7:28:37 PM

correct

1/2/2006 7:30:12 PM

.... time to buy a 95 mustang cobra and make her breath fire

1/2/2006 7:39:47 PM

yeah I waited to get that camry inspected until today, only cost me $9.10

1/2/2006 7:56:34 PM

thats what it always costs me, my shit is registered in northampton county

1/2/2006 8:16:25 PM

so what do yall have to do now ?

just check and see if it has a smog pump & cats then the typical saftey inspection?

1/2/2006 8:19:18 PM

check the lights and horn and slap a sticker on it, oh wait you asked what we are supposed to do, that would take about 10 minutes to type out, its rediculous. no shop could ever do legal inspections and make money

1/2/2006 8:26:04 PM

Damn you from Nawhampton? Where at? I live just across the river, but got a lot of friends live in NH County.

1/2/2006 9:46:08 PM

good, now they won't have to put the sniffer in the tailpipe of a Ranger for me to pass

1/2/2006 10:04:10 PM

Yeah, but they're gonna still be lookin' fer the cat...

That is if you go elsewhere instead of the same place you went last time.

1/2/2006 10:14:13 PM

the place I went to didn't look for shit, the guy just checked everything off and gave me a sticker

1/3/2006 2:46:44 AM

meh.. i have a tig welder... i can pull off an optical illusion .... how bout the smog pump?

1/3/2006 9:57:25 AM

Weld some soup cans together and put a pulley on the front...

1/3/2006 10:37:41 AM

hahaha change things up so if it does anything its a low volume forced induction

oohh fuck that... just machine the pulley so there is a bearing on it

well i guess i'd still like to ditch it for space
