'75 1911 L-Jet with about 7000 miles on it, and a fresh oil change this week. Fresh injectors before the first test. Probably running 87 oct E10 gas today. Might have been 93 100% last year.
12 months ago I passed the HC 399 limit 500 CO 0.65 limit 5.0 CO2 11 no limit listed and from just moments ago 10/2014: HC 428 limit 500 CO 3.83 limit 5.0 CO2 11.53 no limit listed 2 different inspection stations, not sure if that matters. The CO seems to have jumped. I did tweek a few teeth on the AFM between the tests. IIRC I have moved it 9 teeth. Plus the HC is getting close to the limit. I can't remember the RPMs during either test, but they tend to be about 1000, a bit high. It passed but I want to be pro-active, any thoughts about the CO jump and pulling the HC down for next year?

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) TN antique tags are a lifetime thing too. Even cooler is they let you use a tag from the era of the car. But you are only supposed to drive on weekends, to shows and parades. If you get caught and the cop is a wiener, you owe the fees from the day you got the tag. $50 a year for however many years your car has been an antique. Got pulled over once in my 85 VW with a tag that someone used in 1985. the dude was cool and let me know the deal. Clark |

So does my insurance at $130/year. |
