Hi,

Once again my old 1981 5KT with 333,600 + miles on it passed the California
test only station smog test with flying colors.  I laugh every time I think
about it, for I expected to fail, have the State buy it back from me as not
worth repairing, and it would be sold to a  Pick N Pull for $1,000.  Fooled
me;  it passed.  That's not too odd until you hear how long it's been since
it was tuned -- almost 5 years.  I could have leaned it out a little but
left it as it was to see what would happen.

BTW, the testing is on a dyno, which I've now passed twice.  My car is
considered a gross polluter and can only be tested at a test only station.
Seems like it ought to be the other way around.

Cheers!

Jim Jordan
