      would anyone be able to give me some clues as to what's gone wrong. i assume that my high glow cat is finally dead. in the past few months i've replaced o2, spark plugs, and put back my original tune and maf for the smog. going to try what my smog guy recommended for my second run.

            drove the car above 4k a gear below for 15 miles. when i got there kept it running and the temp crept to the 3 quarters mark so i got it damn hot. last year when i smogged it i still had the tune and everything in there and it passed by 1 point. he just idled it at like 4k for like 5 minutes and ran it for me.

                    lol I highly doubt it. Money orders are like actual cash with somebody's name on it. As opposed to checks, which are actually "promise notes".

                    If you want cash out of your Ccard, you have to do a cash advance which usually has its own fee/interest rate.

                      nah, it needs to be hot in order to pass.

                        I gave my cats to a family going over the boarder. I'm pretty sure the cats boiled in the engine bay. Must have been hot enough to pass inspection as they got across.

                            Cash advances out if a credit card have a higher than normal interest fee on the amount itself or a straight up fee if you take out a certain amount. The fee that applies is whichever is bigger or sometimes a combination of both; eg: a flat fee plus a % of the amount you took out. I don't recommend anyone do a cash advance unless you're like seriously pressed up against the wall.

                              No need for me to respond this man is right on the money. It's all a gimmick to get a few more dollars out of your pocket. What are you trying to do exactly? There may be a better way then a money order. Are you trying to send money to pay for an item or as a balance transfer? Ultimately what you can do and how you can limit the amount of interest you pay depends on your credit card and what "feature's" it has.
