So today Luna failed smog for the second time. In both tests there was no CO% at 25mph and my NO% was also too high on both tests. I've replaced all basic items besides my O2 sensor. Would that be my problem?

Looks great with the "new" trunk lid. I cant help with the smog issue, but the 02 sensor is definitely something Id replace

I would try injector cleaner, fuel filter, smoke test and O2 sensor.

I'm getting an O2 sensor in the mail today so hopefully that solves it. The one on the car looks like the original. If that doesn't work I'll try the injectors, already have a new filter. Sprayed carb cleaner all over and not even the slightest increase in revs so I'm pretty sure it's the O2 sensor.

Update on the MTech valance: seller is having a hard time finding a proper box so I think I'm going to drive to San Diego this weekend to pick it up. Rather do that than risk damage.

You are getting there. Nice progress. My mtech II car has had the interior changed out for black in one of its previous lives. Since your title is salvage, it probably won't matter if you change yours out too.

It's gonna be really tough to find an original cardinal cabby interior in good shape. Almost as hard as finding parchment parts. I actually know of a guy in Burlingame that had a red set about three years ago. Never saw it, but he said it was in great shape. Wish I could find his number for you.

As to smog, it could also be leaky intake gasket or intake boot. Spray carb cleaner all around there while the car is idling. If the engine rpm changes, you have found the culprit.


I can't believe you found a husco in the jy. Nice score!!!!

This is probably my issue.

I drove to San Diego Friday night and arrived around 8am to pick up the MTech II valance. Just got back today around 6pm and replaced the O2 sensor. Tried the stomp test after driving like 10 miles on the street/highway and got a 1444. Things are looking good. I just removed the original front valance to straighten it out and prime it white. I didn't know it still went underneath the MTII valance. I didn't take pics since it's late, I'll post pics tomorrow. You can see updates on my Insta at instagram.com/iso_hi.

Shit.

Failed for the 3rd time. I have a free retest. Not sure what to do.



BONUS: Previous smog was done a year ago and passed fine. Trying to get history on what was done (or wasn't) in the last year. Should have asked all this before buying but I was too excited on the MTech kit.

Damn!! Did you follow the advice I posted above?
