not surprised...easy fix for them...nut backed off adj fuel reg...fuel pressure too low...but the real problem i've been chasing..the fuel smell and emissions failures...GUTTED CAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I should have paid more attention seeing as the rest of the system was hacked when I bought it, but in my excitement to own one I overlooked the ez stuff...new cat from Jack on there now, and amazing, no gas smell, only took it around the block though...more time thursday...thanks once again Jack...you are the F'in man!!!!!

Nothing worse than spending money on things you have to have. Takes all the fun out of life! Good luck with your E test.

good thing is, no matter how much I've already spent, the stuff I did spend the dough on were things I needed to do anyway, so it's not like I wasted it...if it clears up today i'll fire her up and hopefully get me a sticker..then bye bye emissions chip, hello fun
