CA State Referee Question

[SoCal-S13]

I got tagged with modification of exhaust (VC 27151 B) and no emissions systems (VC 27156 B). Exhaust has been put back to stock and emissions system has been re-installed.

What i need to know is will they do a visual inspection on my emissions to see that i have installed it and thats it, or will they make me do a smog test to show that it is present and working?

my issue is that my check engine light stays lit like a bums crackpipe, which is an automatic smog test fail. so if they smog it im going to have to pull out my cluster and disable the check engine light bulb. if its visual im good to go.

Pretty sure the state ref will check everything.

also im not 100% on where this hose connects to. its the smallest one on the intake tube




where the hell does it connect to?

[Razi]

I think it's for the intake resonator thing.

The intake resonator thing is the big one underneath the intake pipe. The small one I think goes to the manifold?

I might be lying. It might connect to a T-fitting or something.

been working on 3 diff 240's today and found that it connects just to the right of the throttle body. what it does i am still not sure of tho.

If that is the line that is ~1" OD, that would be the line that runs to the air regulator valve which you can see under the plenum runners toward the firewall.
