Default Emissions finally passed-thanks homedepot :)

I decided to take it in before the 45 days
I originally failed for improper headlight mounted-fixed same day
excessive rust-me and uncle did the repairs

but I did change the pcv,ait filter,ignition wires,and O2 sensor.

Default

and add some denatuated alcohol from homedepot.but I didnt do it the right way, well
when I originally got to the inspection station they told me they cant even look at the car till I get all my receipt's even if i did all the work.i said thats on certain cases right ?
my bottom half of page was highlighted by the 2 young previous ****** at lodi nj that tried to rip at me.
but He tried to see if they can do it without the receiprts but told me to comeback,by this time I had the alcohol in my tank and I wasnt gonna let it sit so I said **** it and refilled tank at corner.
went home found 2 reciepts and decided to just go again and see what numbers I get.they werent too happy I was just there.but what can they do.
now the hard part is getting ny hatch to pass next week.im not in the mood yet to change my sedan parts to the hatch for inspection but some more alcohol may just do it again.
you guys shold try it ,I also believe it cleaned out my injectors the car is running great.

Your smog results give you clues about your AF ratio. If the results are poor, chances are you can gain power/driveability/reliability by fixing the problem with your car, rather than cheating with alcohol. The alcohol trick is for cars that are so far gone that they're not worth working on.
