It's done! Woo Hoo! Yee Ha!
Rattle and Hum made it through smog with FLYING colors today. Previously she'd
passed three of four tests and only the CO at cruise was out of limits. Took
her home...re-set the timing to stock (4 degrees ATDC) and turned the needles in
one complete turn.
The people at the station couldn't believe it.....it made it with lots of room
to spare. Just goes to show you that these cars CAN run relatively clean if
set up properly...which makes the state's attempts to get them off the road
seem even more vilainous.....
A very happy,
TJ
PS-now on top the plethora of other matters at hand. The next item to fix is
the leaking exhaust manifold...then the front end bushings....then the seats...
then....
