I took a hellcat to gapplebee’s. Wasn’t close, so he must have been pretty much stock. I’m surprised you stayed with it at that power level.

I drove it and killed 3/4 a tank of gas trying to get the monitors to clear so I can pass inspection. Frustrating as hell
Hopefully a few more days of driving will get them to clear.

Beat the piss out of it at the first autoX of the season. Other than starter heat soak issues, she begs for more everytime.

Washed it last night at the do it yourself car wash to get the pollen off. Of course it then rained again so when I got to the car this morning to go to work it looked like hell again because the pollen stuck to the rain. Washed it quickly again this morning before work. Now its covered in pollen again. 'tis the season

Don't have much to post since I retired in Jan. . The car sits quite a bit , especially with fuel prices . I drive it every few weeks and keep the tank full . I did install one of these mouse deterrent things on it , just because it sits .

Doesn't matter how much you drive it, unless you like playing the odds. There's a very specific driving pattern that you have to satisfy for the ECU to pass all the tests. It's on here somewhere, might want to search for it.

Yea I did the search and saw what I have to do. Idle with ac and defroster on, do 55mph for 5 miles and decel to 20. Hopefully ina. Few days of doing all the stuff it asks it will be ready.

Surprised NY state is still doing emissions testing. Here in Ontario they have done away with it for passenger vehicles as they figured most of the pollution was caused by heavy commercial and diesel vehicles. Of couse older vehicles are a concern but there are very few non emmisions vehicles this far north anymore which is probably the same for most northern states.

The Provincial Conservatives are undoing all the red tape money grabs.

The cost to run these programs far exceeded the revenue they generated.

No more sticker fees as well.

The Gov hasn't been run this well since Mike Harris led the common sense revolution

Yes I was very happy to receive my sticker refund this spring.

Here they don't do emissions testing, but can't pass the car with a CEL either. I think that's the idea... If no CEL, then everything else must be ok.

SaReNi · 05-19-2022, 02:25 PM

put the 160 t stat in.

We now have no tests at all so even if you had CEL here no one would ever know. No safety or emissions lol. Safety is only required for a new owner to register vehicle.
