clean your throttle body + intake manifold with some carb cleaner. You'd be surprised how dirty it is...especially the IM.

Man this thread comes up like 3x a week at least..

Anyway you should be fine.. use some carb/injector cleaner when you fill up, drive at least 15 min before the test, you will pass.

I just smogged my CRX and I didn't do anything to help it pass other than that (still have HF motor, not gonna waste money on that other than oil changes)
