Man, this is going to be ugly. Two of my Vanagons got tagged for the more intensive "test only station" smog checks this year. I thought these were issued at random? They got me twice in one year. I must be very LUCKY!!! Problem with this is one of the vehicles in question has a cleaner running inline-4 which has not been run through a referee. Darn, guess, I'm gonna have to get me a CARB sticker. I've been getting away from local smog shops by not mentioning it is a conversion. Most places take one look and assume the VW Fox engine in thre came from Wolfsburg. Looks like they are trying to legislate Vanagons out of existence. BenT |
