I was wondering if anyone in or around Missouri has heard anything about the elimination of emissions for pre-1996 vehicles? i pass emission in dec05 but since its an 86 i got screwed into the even yeared cars one year tags and now must pass it once again in dec 06:bs: . and does this meanthat i don't need my cats anymore and what else can i get reed of?

Prior to that date, the commission shall develop a decentralized emissions inspection program that allows official emissions inspection stations to conduct on-board diagnostic testing on 1996 and newer vehicles.[/COLOR]
I'm in MO yes you need your cats on there. Most of the time it really depends on the shop you goto to get it inspected. I say leave it so you shouldn't run into problems at the shop.
I have a hook up on inspections so no worries here! i just don't want to have to put them on my X and save 200 but we wont have to pass emissions any more?
i dont hate clean air i hate how much it cost!

no i don't have a problem i need to fix to pass i needed to now as of when did i not need to pass and if i dont need the cats on there for any legal emmision reason i will remove them and weld the heat sheids of them on my pipes so it appears i have some. ha cops wont now the differance
why not just slip the inspector $20? Its not any diffrent. Either way you are still breaking the law. They will give you a pay to pass option. here it is like $150. You just throw $150 down twoards getting it fixed once a years, and before you know it it will be working fine.
If your car was equiped with cats, they they are required by law. Otherwise they wouldn't be there in the first place.
i know the owner of a shop that does insections so that isn't my worry i need to know if i will need them for emmission fume and if the are doing some twisted law about any car older than 96. that is my concern.
