In 1990 I took my '86 in for it's first IL smog test (I'd brought it from
Hawaii), it failed. The guy at the testing station advised me to go drive
it around and get it really warmed up then come back and don't splash the
underside in puddles if i could help it.
After following his advice it passed.
