Good morning all,
I am hoping to track down someone with a 1HD-FT powered HDJ81 in an emissions compliance area of Colorado (front range). I went for inspection at the emissions technical center in Denver this morning and was told that beginning in 1997, the HDJ81 had catalytic converters. Since my truck does not have cats, it did not pass inspection. I am under the impression that these motors did not come with cats at all.
I am looking for someone who has navigated this process before in as similar a truck to mine as possible.
I know some local folks who passed inspection and emissions with the 1HD-T, but for some reason, the inspection folks are claiming that something changed in 1997-1998 with the emissions systems on these trucks and they did come with cats.
Alternatively, any other support, resources, or guidance are welcome. I expect I'll have to put together some resources to prove this truck did not come with cats, if that is indeed the case.
Thanks!
