I had heard that....................but didn't believe it, until now.

Hope is 100% true and is not changed by some halfwit in Springfield!.

I was worried some testing dumbsh*t would blow up my five speed.

 

[Blown306]

Yea...some of them ain't the sharpest tools in the shed...I watched a guy set up my Mark 8 with the front wheels on the rollers. I let him get it all set up then as he started the car, I flagged him down

 

[firescout211]

the guy killed my 5sp f150 3 times tryin to get it in the bay! they wouldn't let me near him till he told me that my truck was faulty, then i asked him if he took off the parking break! idiot!

Just remember that even though the state does not check it, that does not let you off the hook for violating the federal law: 203(a)(3)(A) and (B) Clean Air act of 1990 (as ammended) :thumbsup:

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet

 

[mybird_91]

i'm up for test in sep. this year. do i still need to test this last time? does this include all of IL? Madison County?

 

[DirtyBird46]

You need to pass under the new rule that goes inplace on Feb. 1st, 2007 to be exempt.

So go test one more time and when you pass, your new certificate says EXEMPT instead of PASS. I imagine it is all of IL, the rule says "Illinois Vehicle Emission Test."

 

[cougar_guy04]

What are these "emissions tests" you speak of?

if i am reading the lanaguage correctly , unless you have recieved a notice to test your exempt now .

 

[DirtyBird46]

Justin, I think you are right. If your current expiration date is after January 1, 2007.
