I apoligize for the OT post, but I guess that many people at
sci.electronics.repair work not only on electronic things but
mechanical things as well. The connection to sci.environment should be
evident.

The question is this: is there a Usenet group at which automotive
emission controls are discussed? I am not interested in removing them,
nor do I wish to engage in a rant on the politics of emission controls.
Rather, I am pulling my hair out trying to get my car to pass the
emissions test. I've put in hour after hour, and.... Well, you get the
point.

Surely there is a group devoted to this. Thanks for the help.

When in doubt, read the manual. If the car is newer than 1996, get the On
Board Diagnostics tests done. Fix the sensors, etc. Rather simple, really.
But not the thing a back yard mechanic (like me) can do for cheap....
