They failed my 96 SS back in November for a burned out rear license plate light and they failed my 88 4Runner this morning for a bad gas cap! It actually holds pressure, but apparently it's not enough for this state! I passed emission's easily and that's with an 18 year old truck with 149K miles and the original catalytic converter too! So now I need to go to Poop Boys to buy a cap and then go back through.

I picked up a new gas cap and went back through after work last night. Passed, so now I have 2 years before I have to worry about it again. I'll take the fender flares back off and sell them since I don't really need them and they're worth some money. If I'm still driving this 4Runner in 2 years then that's a really bad sign! :laugh:
