I got a CB7, stock no motor mods and the dam thing failed.
I was shocked.
Did A tune up 3 months ago, adjusted the valves swapped fluids, plugs.
Oil and oil filter swap last month.
Only thing I've neglected so far is the K&N drop in filter I have in there.
Could the air filter be what did me in?

 

I don't think the filter did it.

Did you change the distributor cap and rotor. How about your EGR? Clean ports?

Distributor cap and rotor were changed last yr.

The print out says I failed the "Fuel cap Functional"

 

O then new gas cap will make it pass. I thought the engine failed smog.

The gas cap I got at autozone when I left my OEM one at the gas station.
I got really high readings too, is that gas cap related?

 

no the cap is not related to high readings...if you are looking for help or advice, tell us what you failed on exactly

 

Here are pics of the VIR

 

I think I read it wrong, I failed ignition timing.

 

I would definately clean your EGR ports and fix your timing.

 

aww man you guys are so lucky i would love to see how my 99 accord with an aftermarket cai , exhaust w/ gutted out cat and aftermarket headers would read on those inspections.

Check the FAQ at the top

 

the catalytic converter is probably shot, might need a new 02 too

edit: timing is off? wth, has someone been messing with the car?

Paper says O2 and the cat passed too.

I clicked on that, I see timing belt

 

Do this and set your timing properly before you do anything else and try again

it passed functional, as in it is connected and is installed in the car. But it doesnt tell you if its actually working the way its suppose to.

 

ahhh
o.k
Am I just better off finding a "SMOG" place?

I thought Visual meant it was connected and installed and functional was if it worked properly or not.

 

advance timing to 16 BTDC and pour in a can of that CRC pass smog, run 'spiritedly' for an hr or so and see what happens.

no idea what crc is, but I might as well seafoam the motor.

 

well you are always better off finding a knowledgable smog place because they can pinpoint what exactly is wrong so you dont end up spending money on things that dont need to be replaced. But nowhere in the smog check does it check to see if each component is working the way it is suppose to. Becareful of that seafoam crap as it can kill 02 sensors and catalytic converters.

similar to seafoam, $7 at kragens.

"CRC guarantee smog pass" or something like that.

 

does that stuff go into the brake booster line too?
