Default Emissions & Inspections here in NoVa

For anybody looking for a P-car friendly shop here in NoVa for inspections and emissions I highly recommend Sterling Automotive out here in Sterling VA. Last year I used them for the inspection and then this year I used them for both inpection and emissions.

Darryl is the gentlemen who handles inspections there and he knows how to take care of our cars.

Here's a link to a Pelican thread where I posted the results of my emissions tests: http://forums.pelicanparts.com/showt...hreadid=114067

Emissions are something Gentlemen don't do in public.

Doug,


Do you think he knows the difference between SSI's and a cat? And I'm not talking about the furry kind

I told the last emissions inspector last year that my air pump was down there behind the intercooler. I can't even see back there with a flashlight , so the visual went away. He let it slide and couldn't figure out how to jack up the car to look for the air tubes. I leaned it out for the test, and it tested super clean. Now I am exempt.....
