Well, I just got off the telephone (called the 800 number on the phamphlet), very nice young lady. I really like that southern accent. Anyhow back to the subject at hand. There is a visual inspection for your car. As long as all the equipment is in place your should pass that part just fine. Requires closed PCV system, Evaporative emissions cannister, EGR, O2 sensor, computerized engine controls and a three way catalytic converter. Then the emissions sample test is idle only. Your car sould pass that test fairly easily also. What kind of modifications are done to your vehicle? Including aftermarket prom, as this may be a detemining factor. The functional test is a evaporative system integrity test. I would suspect that an inert gas is pumped into the fuel tank and a pass would be to hold the pressure for a specified time period (ususally 8 inches of water for 15 seconds). So, your Evaporative cannister, purge valve and tank lines must be in good working order. It also appears that there is a $200 cost limit for repairs before a waiver could be obtained. This even applies to owner repairs.
