The car I'm driving didn't pass emissons, and so I may be in the
position of spending the requisite $200 mininum and trying for a waiver
if it doesn't pass the second time.  Has anyone had to do this, and what
was your experience?  Please e-mail me privately at
louisep@mindspring.com if you think this isn't appropriate for general
discussion on this group.

The car, BTW, is an '83 Honda Civic Wagon, 5 speed, 152K.  It passed on
all measures except for CO% at 2500 RPM; that was 1.60%, and 1.50% is
the max.  The shop I take it to says it is burning oil (which I think is
probably true), which is causing the high emissions readings.
Thanks.
