Ah I see they closed the original chicago thread and a new one was created here. I'm back in Chicago for a bit and I'm working on my Stealth. My question is have any of you had problems passing emissions? When I originally built my car I planned to take it with me to FL where there are no emissions but plans have sinced changed. I don't really have a garage and I already have 2 cars including another RT/TT in FL so I have no intention of bringing it down there anymore. I feel kinda bad as the car has sat for over a year. My license was already suspended because I had registered the car before I moved in IL to get it to the NG and once my extension for emissions testing ran out, they came after me. I've since told them the car is off road use only and unregistered it but I'd really like to take it on the street. I can obtain a temp. pass which gives me a 6 hour window to get the car to an emissions testing joint and pass but I seriously doubt it will. I was ruthlessly efficient in stripping off all pollution control and hiding the pieces around my parents house never to be found again. I have a main cat back on the car but I have DN precat eliminators, EGR blockoffs, and removed the evap canister system. I can lean out the car with an ARC2 before I take it in and run it hard on an interstate to warm up the main cat but it's the gas tank sniffer I'm afraid I'll fail. The car reaks of gas when I park it in a garage so I know it needs that evap system back in place. Has anyone tried to pass this test without the evap system? Does anyone know someone that can hook me up regarding these tests?
Otherwise I'll be spending a few hours looking for some solenoids and the purge control valve.
