It was that time of year again. I had checked the car over and all the obvious stuff was OK, lights all worked, brakes looked good..... However, the usual spectre of the emissions test loomed over it, although I repeated the procedure from last year in that I ran a bottle of injector cleaner through the system and then did a reasonably long run staying in 3rd gear to get the RPM up to 4-5000 rpm. Also there were the advisories for last year regarding the wishbone bushes.
So put her in with some trepidation. Result: A clear pass with no advisories 😅
Not bad for a 13 yr old car, particularly as she took 5 years to build so is actually 18 yrs old, and the engine and transmission date from 1995, 25 years ago.
