Just had to git the 91' YJ smogged... the state of CA has a new "evap test" that is gonna cost anyone who ownes a vehicle from 86-96 about another $100- to pass smog. its a load of :poop: !
The gist is they hook up this :poop: machine to the gas tank fill instead of the gas cap and "pressurize the tank" and then time out the "vaccume leaks" or some other :mad: thing....
I am tryin' to let everyone know because unless you have a good smog guy you are gonna get screwed. There is no freakin' way your 86' whatever-J jeep does not have an "evap leak"...
The best thing I can think of is to somehow block the fill tube and vent line so that the system doesn't leak like its been hit with buckshot. I mean the plastic tanks have friggin' vents right on the top of them! and if your stealership won't do the recall work to fix the fuel pump gasket on the top of the tank because you put in a Genright or other tank slider you are :thumbs_down:
Just my :2:
