I had to smog my DD today and noticed this sign in the waiting room, which would be applicable to the 1976 914s. Tech says they pinch off the evap system (tubing and charcoal filter between the fuel tank and air filter box) and insert some kind of gas under low pressure to test the evap system, for leaks.
What other testing is required in your area, if any? Attached thumbnail(s) |

That's why I didn't buy a 76. My 914 was a Arizona car all its life and I have the Arz. smog Certs along with all the maintance work that was required to be done so it could pass smog. I really think this testing with repair and a couple of past responsible owners kept it in such good running cond.
