CA Smog Cert Point of Reference

[Dyn Blin]

Good afternoon all.  In case there are other CA Bullnose Riders out there residing in zip codes that require bi-annual emissions testing, here's my latest smog test report for some data points for ideas of where our individual performances may fall over the bell curve.  I posted my prior from 2017 a few months back.

In California, our era of trucks are labeled as potential "gross polluters" and we have to have our tests done at a select subset of state-endorsed providers.  My latest test closely trails the last one, done 2 years and approximately 15k miles ago.  Although the state resource board indicates the benchmarks are regularly adjusted to accommodate the age of a tested vehicle, the tolerances were unchanged from my prior test.

When I purchased my truck, all the emissions items had been deleted by the prior owner, so I had to source and rebuild the components.  The group input here was a big help.  Thank you.

Looks good! Proof that properly maintained these trucks will even pass California's draconian regulations.

Damn glad we don't have that here!

Sure glad you passed.  Well done!
