Whooooo Hoo

Past my emission for the PORSCHE. Won't need to take it in for another two years.

Last time I brought it in it had a stuck injector so one cylinder was dead. It was the cleanest test the PORSCHE ever recorded.

This year all cylinders were working and it pass. Too bad the driving season is coming to a close for me.

Emissions? What is this "emissions" thing you speak of and why is it cause for celebration?

My '88 always passed with flying colors. I just drove the snot out of it.

Ruf, do you have any pics of the Lotusesese or lotii or whatever the plural would be?

Danny Ocean, do you have split personality?? You are in San Diego and Miami at the same time??

I have homes on both coasts (and a few more in-between), but all my vehicles are registered in FLA.

You can keep your state income tax, severe gun restrictions, out-of-sight property prices, tree-hugging liberals, (oxygenated)gasoline approaching $4.00/gal. and multi-hundred $$$ vehicle registration (for less than $250/yr. total, I register ALL six of my vehicles).

Oh, and Jeb Bush won't let the Legislature leave until the state budget is balanced. When is the last time you had a balanced budget in CA?

The "stuck" injector is an old trick.. You get one cylinder acting like an air-pump...

Dilution is a great way to get a car to pass. I'm guessing you emitted about five-sixths of what you do now.
