Seriously.
If you pay a certain amount towards repairs to pass the e-test you get an automatic pass. |

Problem is I don't have the 600 (or whatever the amount is) to pay for the "repairs". I have vet bills to pay cuz my idiot horse cut up his leg, supplements, training and possibly trailering for x-rays. The car itself is in fairly good condition, just the previous owner put a resonator on it and did some crap with the engine. Somewhere down the line it'll eventually be tuned and a proper muffler will be put on, but until everything is taken care of (horse & school stuff) it has to wait. Therefore fake one is the only option at this moment. |

you don't have to spend money to get a conditional pass... you only have to pay for e-tests and diagnostics
A resonator shouldn't affect the emissions readings |

Brilliant. You do know that an e-test has nothing whatsoever to do with CO2, right?
Emissions testing is intended to prevent toxic or hazardous emissions. That includes:
- Hydrocarbons (HC, - incomplete combustion products)
- Nitrogen Oxides (NOx)
- Carbon Monoxide (CO - that's the one that will kill you if you leave your car running in the garage for 3 hours).
Drive Clean doesn't even regulate CO2 emissions. But I'm sure you already knew that, and were just making a joke, right?
Technically, since the main component in emissions control is the catalytic converter which converts a lot of those other bad things into harmless CO2, passing an emissions test would actually be increasing one's "carbon footprint." |

Thanks Diginut. You are always great at making people feel like an idiot.
Regardless having a clean car = clean air and that was my main point
Or maybe I'm wrong on that too |

My interpretation of what you said was that if you're having car trouble, then you should drive less (or take public transportation), thus reducing your carbon footprint.
Clearly I read WAY too into your post! lol |
