Hi Bill,

Still holding my breath for the emmissions test to go away. It is stupid to test a car now nearly 40 years old. I know the legislation was postponed a couple of times, so I hope it happens.
It will be nice (in the future), NOT have to take my 67 L-35 Camaro through emmissions. What sucks, is that MY registration is due in March...so I will have to have it certified at least for this year. When it had a Holly on it, you could lean it down to practically no fuel, and it easily passed the tests. When I put the car back to stock, the Q-jet, (even rebuilt) makes this emmissions test an "event" every year. Last year, I leaned the carb, but still failed the first attempt. I then put in new plugs, changed the oil, new PCV, and used a fuel additive product call Gauranteed to Pass. I also took it out of the garage and drove it, including a trip to the Pavillions. All the efforts got it to pass. Yeah! The year before, I failed like 3 times. You have kids that don't know how to drive these old cars. They dump the clutch, load the car with fuel, and you fail. Duhh. I NOW request the manager of the facility to test the car. The way it is driven DOES effect the test results. One caution if you fail: The guys at the testing stations will tell you that IF you continue to fail, the car can get an exemption. The problem is, that once you get an exemption, the car can never be exempted again. So, next time, the car would be required to pass, or no registration. Lets HOPE the legislation take effect in May!
