Default Passing Emissions in WA - Any tricks?

Whats up my fellow washingtonians

Just was thinking about how im going to pass emissions when it comes around next year lol.. just had a few questions.

How do you guys running FI setups pass emissions, they use a sniffer do they not? or do they just plug in and see if your throwing any codes?

Also, i heard a rumor that even if you fail, if you give them a reciept showing you spent at least $150 trying to fix it, they will pass automatically even if you still fail.

Any word on if thats true?

Thanks in advance,
Aaron

Change your address to the West Sound. Few counties outside the major population areas require testing. We're clean over here.

Jining,
I could give you an address that has nothing but a garage on it, but I can't say what the repercussions would be when they find out you don't live in your car.

Oregon and Washington have very similar characteristics statewide, both the East sides and West sides. Oregon's coast line beats Washington's hands down, but no state has the inland waters, peninsulas, and islands with snow covered mountain ranges on both sides like Washington.

Now if you really want to have your eye-***** pealed back, take a trip through BC and western Alberta. Of course, for all 4 states/provinces you should carry an umbrella.

You should scan your car 1st. It might pass. If you go on the baker drive I could have a scanner there to check it
