On the way there
There is nowhere else to post this, but I had some major success today and have to tell someone. It's made me like my 40 again, which I was thinking of selling but now it's a keeper.
I have a '76 FJ40 which squeeked through smog two years ago. This year the NOX was high by just 150 points. I set the timing from 11 BTDC(4 degress over stock), to 6 BTDC(just under stock) and the NOX came down 500 points! Yeehaw. Everything else was low. HC was 46 (max 161), CO was .12 (max 1.39) Nox was 687 (max 1367). These numbers are off the rolling dyno at 25mph.
This could be my last smog test. The '75's become exempt in January and the '76's a year later. Since I wasn't labled as a gross polluter, I have 2 years on the current smog test, which will carry me past the roll over date. Once that is confirmed, there could be a diesel in my future!!!!!
I don't mean to waste bandwidth, but I had to share this with people who would understand. CalARB
