Bye Bye c4....?

I had my dad park it outside for me with a for sale sign, literall0y 2 minutes later someone offered me $5000 and will buy it as long as it passes smog. It passed last time, but it was close... keep your fingers crossed.
I feel strangely empty, but yet at the same time, relief.

Im not replacing it just yet, if/when I buy another, I will pay cash.

My friend is just fine, and I'm doing real well. I get to go back to work next week! Thanks

Re: Bye Bye c4....? (Kale)

EGR fixed my high nox. Also if the guy will let it stay in the gear that gets the highest allowable rpm for the test will help with high nox too. My shifter boot gets in the way sometimes and it won't stay in 1st. So the first time I tested it shifted in second gear at the 15mph test. RPM range for the test was something like under 2500 rpm so in second gear it's idling along at 1200 rpm maybe.... it failed. I showed the guy how to move the shifter boot over so it would stay in first gear, he tested again at 2200 or so rpm in 1st gear and it passed with flying colors.
