I always read about them, what do they do test you emmision's. and they do this on a Dyno type machine. I have heard all these horror stories and just want to know what exactly is done, and what are the penalties for non-complience

Didn't u own a car when FL had emission inspections? They would test for some crap in the exhaust, if it did not pass at idle, they would put it on a small dyno and run the car up to a certain rpm and test again. Fawking sucked, the 79 Ford LTD was hurting and would only pass when my budy working would leave the o2 sensor half way out

Thank god we did not have visual inspecation as I would have failed hard core.

That was like 3 or 4 years ago that they stoped doing it. It was once a year, perhaps someone else was doing it for your cars.

fuqin PA damn IT! I have to leave my car there all day...our emissions tests suck! When I was back in Ohio it was in and out in 20 mins or less while they put a tube up to the exhaust to test for fumes. Here it's like they test everything...lights, windshield wipers, horn, emissions, it sucks...and don't even GET me started about the alcohol rules...everything state store. Only from 8-9. I’m sorry for going OT but not one of you can stand up for PA when it comes to these two things...

I just want to be able to buy a in a Kroger’s again!

Good thing we don't live in Japan. Did you read the short in Sport Compact about how rough their lives are? If you haven't you should. Came out 2-3 months ago...

peace and respect,
