Do they physically inspect the vehicles, or is it an OBDII check? If the latter, an O2 spacer should work.
My thoughts too. Don't sound like it's a hooptiIf it's solid and good looking, and more importantly, rust free, might be worth the extra coin to go with a better cat, in case you keep longer than anticipated.
They physically check brakes, tires, windshield wipers, turn signals, etc.... Then they use a specific emissions machine/computer that is linked to some Pennsylvania emissions regulations to see if it passes or fails. My code will fail emissions my mechanic told me.Do they physically inspect the vehicles, or is it an OBDII check? If the latter, an O2 spacer should work.
Sorry, but was is a hoopti?My thoughts too. Don't sound like it's a hoopti
"Hooptie". Slang for jalopy, or a dilapidated car.Sorry, but was is a hoopti?
That's how NYS has done it for some timeThey physically check brakes, tires, windshield wipers, turn signals, etc....

Just a quick note. There are O2 sensor spacers with built in catalysts, available from various sources. They absolutely do provide a valid signal to the ECU, with a properly tuned engine, even with no cat at all.That's how NYS has done it for some time
Personally, just add on a $20 O² spacer first, and run it through a drive cycle
If the catalyst monitor runs and passes, go get your inspection, and move on with life
