Hello everyone,

I am new to this forum and am in need of major help. I am unable to pass the emission part of the inspection and need to know if there is any shop in the Tarrant County area that will help me "pass". I have tried multiple repairs and am still unable to pass the sniffer. My truck is a '88 and only have this year and next before I only have to have the safety inspection. Please any help on a shop would be helpful!

Thanks in advance!

Goodluck bro...

 

No one in there right mind is going to give away there secret shop that makes you "PASS" inspection. Especially over the internet, on a public forum, and to a newbie...

I know what you are saying and I wouldn't trust anyone either. I was just hoping because money is tight and was hoping to find a place for this year and next, because I would not have to worry. What would be my next step? Should I go shop to shop trying to find help? I am looking for any kind of help.

I would recommend that you actually get your truck fixed.

+1 on fixing the truck to pass. You'll feel much better when you know its up to par. Although passing emissions isnt saying much in the grand scope of things, I would like stricter tests for cars to be on the road.

I'm sorry but I call BS on your post man.... This post sounds like a LE fishing operation for illegal Inspection stations... If your truck is a 1988 it is NOT subject to emission testing even if your in an emission county....

****I know this post was from 2011 but I'm a new member and even at time of posting truck if registered in an emissions county was NOT subject to emissions testing.... being as this guys only posted TWICE tells me it was a fishing expedition******

Hey look here dummy, look at the original post date! I will again state that I'm not a fake. I was just looking for a place to help me pass inspection. I found other ways of getting an inspection sticker. I have since sold it so don't need anything anymore. Before you think you are going to be a smart guy, look when it was originally posted.

Let's do some simple subtraction. Original post date (2011) - year of vehicle (1988) = anyone? anyone? 23

A vehicle must be 25 years old before no emissions are not required.

Again, look before you post dummy!

      2015 Sierra Denali L86 cyl 5 misfire at idle

      By Gkistler · Posted

      Hi friends - first time poster. I have a 2015 sierra Denali with 150k miles, I’m the second owner and she’s given me 75k of great service. I run a pulse AFM disable device. Starting Thursday when I exited the freeway after a short local ride it started idling rough, with an obvious misfire shake and was down on low end power.  I got it home and hooked it up to my scannner and found no codes but in live data a pretty bad misfire on cylinder 5. I replaced the coil, plug and wire with all new OE replacements (Delphi gn10165 coil, acdelco wire and 41-168 plug). It’s still behaving the same way after firing the parts cannon at it.   I know cyl 5 is a non AFM cylinder so I am not thinking this is AFM related but I’m kinda at a loss. injector? Bent pushrod? It’s running too well over 1k rpm to suggest those IMO. Has anyone chase this issue before and what was it? Any suggestions?

      Pulsating Noise 4Cyl Mode

      By zibzer2 · Posted

      2017 Silverado L83 5.3l 6speed transmission Hello, not a new member but havent posted in a while and my old signup info isnt working so had to create a new account. anyways, I have an issue with my truck and hope someone can spread some light on whats happening: -when it goes to 4cyl mode it makes a clunk sound (but not when coasting or going downhill) -when in 4 cyl mode and under load it makes a load pulsating sound (not a tick). -goes away completely when in M5 gear or when plugging in an AFM delete. Im guessing it is one of 2 things but im not convinced of either to be honest. 1. lifter stuck in v8 mode 2. torque converter shudder realistically it doesn't seem like the TC as there is no physical vibration , and it never happens in v8 mode. but maybe? and wouldnt a lifter make a sound whether with load or not? any ideas let me know please. thank you!

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Which has made me wonder with the various engine failures of a few brands in the last few years, is it sub par materials such as lifters etc causing failures, or bearing clearances on the crank etc or perhaps bad designing of an engine physically or causing too much load on the components due to the hp/torque they can push out of them. Or is the oil viscosity and additive package of current oils or a lack of oil flow by an oil pump not able to supply sufficient oil at idle or under high load at low rpm. Or is it every item I listed that combined together has pushed the limits so far to the left that there is hardly a margin of safety left and add in some fuel dilution and too long of an OCI and premature engine failure is the result ?.

      He is not saying that an SAE *W20 will have more viscosity than a *W40 due to MORE VII polymers. He is saying that although multiple *W40 may post in the PDS the same or similar 100 C and 150 C viscosities that the blenders choice of modifier TYPE and AMOUNT to get his chosen base to grade will not give identical real world viscosities in shear and at temperature. All will pass the SII test but not all will pass the 100 C HTHS (unpublished value) testing the blender does and relies on to get the required by law "percentage improvement' referenced to his last great work.    Tis the problem with the lie. Once told others are required to support it.

      Parking Brake - Automatic Engagement Questions

      By PunchT37 · Posted

      I have a `25, 1500 that auto sets on incline. Never knew that at first. I have the electronic shifter. Just think if it didn`t do that? Unlike a mechanical shift that you can muscle out of park, how would you get this thing out? That would be a problem.   What I found out later is, I don`t have to push the button to release. Just put it in gear.   Setting parameters? Don`t know if it`s possible.
