- In this video I show you some tricks and tips you can use to Pass an Emissions or Smog Test even with a Check Engine Light on! If you have a check engine light but your car is running fine or maybe even you've already taken it in and it passed the emissions part of the test but failed the visual inspection due to the service engine or check engine light, there are a couple of things you can do to remedy that and I cover them in this Video.

there are not enough crooked shops anymor,e what happen to the old days when you could slip someone a 20 and you were on your way to the dmv for new tags, too many do gooders in this day and age.
ask your latino buddies. lol. its still posiible
Bubbautah now it’s $150 they still out there mostly in shady cities lol
They want 300$ now in ca anyways. Used to be 200$
That loop hole is quickly getting closed too
( a friend of mine paid someone to pass the smog test as he had a check engine light -- two years later - once that place got closed for doing fake tests - they tagged all those who 'passed' earlier -- so this year he has to got refreed - he has to go to refree place instead)
Get Mexican connects $150 and they pass it for me
Smog test are really stressful on upkeep made me find a way everytime i buy a new car, this made situations hard but seems RUclips and Channel's like Stray Administration represent a stress free civilization making these fast for our purpose...💯
You in luck then, as I am, not to say much and let they're actions work for them. Stray Administration's RUclips channel...
Wow we're here at it again, seems I go to praise them everytime I get satisfaction from the platform on RUclips
My 2008 Nissan Altima failed the emission test and could not find the cause. Sparkplug, Injectors, MAF, PCV valve, Oxygen sensors, Catalytic converter, Piston rings, Seaform treatment everything was addressed but the problem still persisted. Finally, someone noticed that the temperature gauge was always showing a very low value. And it was found the thermostat valve was faulty and was stuck open and the ECU was sensing it as cold start condition always and the fuel air ratio was running rich. The fuel economy was much better after replacing the thermostat valve but I miss the sporty acceleration and pick-up when it was running rich.
Thought might be useful to someone going through similar dilemma.
thanks for the info
it happens all the time sorry about bad mechanics not doing there job correctly and WASTING YOUR MONEY on a easy fix
@Patrick Bzdula I know this old post but I suspect that's what's happening to mine, and legit scared the mechanic is going to charge me a lot for a simple fix
I wish you were located here in Tucson az you seem very honest about the mechanical work, there isn’t many here I trust, thanks for your videos
Fr fr because I still can't pass emissions here in Tucson. Hopefully the air filter is the last thing I have to do
#1 Move to a city that does not require emission tests. Stop giving these tyrants your money (taxes, fees, etc)
so the hotter the catalytic converter is the better its working? mine must be the best its glowing red hot
🤣
🤣
Animal productions yup sounds about right
Animal productions if it's glowing hot it's probably partially clogged. If it gets worse your car will run worse as the engine warms up. Eventually it will stall out and won't restart.
😂😂😂😂😂
Out of all of the videos I watch, yours is most detailed. From my recollection, I do believe you covered every detail and you stated it all correctly.
It's all B.S. It may have worked that way but not anymore.
Has not don't bother with him
Eat 3 meals in a row at Taco Bell and you'll be passing emissions...
U think that's funny huh buddy???? I will have u know that I blew out my bung hole ring eating too much taco bell and weinersnitzel and that ain't no laughing matter!!!!! Now everytime I fart it sounds like a cool sea breeze.
😂
Premium gas is NOT cleaner only has more aromatic triple bond hydrocarbons which when broken release more energy,providing your engine has the compression to break those bonds. One other tip add heet to the fuel. Heet is methanol which has oxygen on the molecule. This helps a more complete combustion at the very least adds more oxygen out the tailpipe dilluting hc.
good looks on the recommendation. will try
@@kyleh6173 blu n exile 👍🏽 lol funny I find this 4 weeks ago posted and the original 4 years ago . Going to try heet and premium gas hope I pass I was off by 3 HC ppm
Great videos. I've watched 2 of yours so far and learned a ton. Easy to understand. Straight to the point. I appreciate it, keeo uo the good work. Liked and subbed
Hey! I like this guy. Whatever the topic he gets right to it. Love that he tells me everything in simple terms I need to know. Thanks!
A high quality video with reliable tips and skills, but mine was carried out by stray admin, he makes it possible for you to pass without attending any test or procedure, in a busy person so I had no time for emission test and still went well anyways.. I only had to hit the RUclips search icon and type in Stray Administration, popped right after
You in luck then, as I am, not to say much and let they're actions work for them. Stray Administration's RUclips channel...
I lived in Saint Louis for 10 years where they required emissions tests. What a freakin boondoggle and major pain in the rear.
Even if your check engine light was on for a non-emissions reason (faulty knock sensor?) they still failed you.
Yeah me to St. Louis sucks!
Listen to this guy,I took my 1997 Toyota Tacoma yesterday and it did not pass the emissions at 15 miles a hour.Today I drove my car for 45 minutes on the freeway and I put in Chevron 91 octane and put air in my tires.........and it passed today,and ready to get registered.
last week my 93 honda failed the emissions test. mechanic advice me to add premium gas and a bottle of seafoam to gas tank and drive it hard for about a week. did so and i thought i was f'd after reading most of everyones comments saying not to add premium gas.
car passed smog, no issues.
Italian tuneup.
Those people telling you to NOT use Premium gasoline do NOT know their automotive science ! They are ignorant ! The 3 components to fire an engine are fuel, oxygen, heat. Premium gas fires at a higher temperature thereby burning more gas with less unburned gas and thus less emissions, thereby causing your car to Pass the Emissions Test
It's an automatic fail in Hellinois if the CEL is on. Fascist racketeering at its finest.
Struggling in hellinois right now
That because your having a emissions issue. So your complaining about a light coming on cause you a emissions malfunction causing you to fail emissions testing? What a shocker. Get it fixed and you’ll pass it’s that simple.
Same of the OBD test in Ohio, The only exception for that can be if your car will downgrade and be tested on the dyno. Usually 1996 to 2002 model years.
Same for Ohio if your using OBD2 , Ohio is phasing out the tailpipe test as of 01-01-2020
Same in NJ
What annoys me with this is unlike a broken light or a bad wheel bearing which you can fix and know it's fixed, you can't really do this yourself and easily test the emissions to ensure it doesn't fail again
Yeah.. I failed 3 weeks ago, i found a burst hose on the pcv valve. Replaced that hose and the pcv valve... today i ran some throttlebody cleaner through the throttlebody. Coming week i'll do some airflowsensor meter cleaning. Just hope that it will pass the next time i go there. Otherwise i'll have to bring it to a garage to be financially ripped off and have some sneaky small things broken on purpose so they hope i'll be back later 🙄🙂
@@Engineer9736 this mindset is trash u can’t do it yourself but u don’t wanna pay someone professional to do it
I was trying to watch a video on how to pass your emotions. My mistake
Nope, passing gas. Exhaust gas that is.
I'm crying with you.
Im pissed cause this is the last year my state requires emissions yet i still have to go through this hassle just for one year
It's all good working on what we know, we're really at this thinking we're all on the move while my friend had Stray Administration work this out, the RUclips channel speaks fast truth to me which made me see what i needed we all work and have no time, but we're enjoying ourselves on here tho... Lol😅😅🎉❤❤❤❤
The scanner will erase the engine light or trouble codes but if you don’t fix the problem it will comeback
In Maryland I passed my test this way. First my engine light was on showing 2 readings. I used my obd to reset clearing the engine light then I drove 3-5 miles pulled over check my readings which showed my 2 reading but had not activated my engine light yet took the test and passed
Hey Lionel my check engine light stays on .. I live in Maryland as well i go to mva in glen
Burnie ..it really worked for u? Possible to give me more detail

Did you pass the smog check?
Removing the battery terminal will not get you to pass your smog . I repeat it will not!
Free Man it will hinder it which is my issue now. I changed battery is smog people say car won’t pass inspection. Computer is cleared not able to read
In Ohio it will earn you are return trip and maybe a 30 day tag.
What it will get you is 5-10 day to drive the vehicle to reset the ECU
This a a fact to “ ALL “ Californians .
@@prettybaby80 cars have something called "Readiness monitors" you have to drive the car until all the readiness monitors are set to "ok", with the exception of 1(model year 2000 or newer allows this I believe). So 1 monitor can still be on "incomplete status" and still pass.
Premium (high octane) gas is NOT cleaner. It burns slower and resists pre ignition. This is needed for high compression, turbocharged, high performance engine's. It will INCREASE your emissions because you will not have a complete burn.
exactly what happened to me for the smog test, the mechanic suggested i take the just purchased 2001 car for a 150 miles drive at a steady (ha ha ha THAT nearly got me into near accident situations several times) at 55 mph before the mechanic could hook up a re-test (and charge an extra $8.00) and issue an online certificate if the car passes), the long risky drive did work and the car did pass the smog tests- ~
thanks friend all your videos are very useful ....
+amjad amj np thanks for commenting.
God bless you for making this video!! It was very, very helpful, and....I PASSED!!!! YAY!!!!
bet you would have passed anyway.
in OH when there was testing. you just had to go back 3 times. on the fourth try was a automatic pass. but if or when they put your car on the rollers. there was a good chance they would blow it up. if it was a pretty old car that was in poor shape.
Working on test results goes to legal handling, having a friend in there won't be bad, said this till i got to Stray Administration, the RUclips channel gets to you close to the person and works you to the right part i mean thr best...❤❤❤
Wow we're here at it again, seems I go to praise them everytime I get satisfaction from the platform on RUclips
Thanks for donating your time to make this video.
Those obd2 scanners were like 400$ when they first came out. 600 if the dealers was willing to sell one...
Even older cars with carbs had emissions (garbage).components..
TRICK too passing is a hot engine block/exhaust manifold. Let it idle for 45 min and somewhere in that time remove the air filter(if carberateed or throttle body) the extra volume air (less restricted) without mixture adjustment leans out the fuel air ratio. Just enough to make the engine seems to run funny but not stall out at a light. It will also help heat up cylinder walls causing higher engine heat.
However do reinstall air filter immediately after leaving the test. NEVER run an engine long periods without an air filter. It WILL destroy your engine within a year possible days.. special times for special regulations...
I remember going to the homie.. park the car lower the windows keys inside and your put the money and n registration.. comeback in an hour just like that..
It was very helpful video. Thanks!
What do you do if you have a 2009 car & the battery died just before inspection. I changed my battery. The car has no other problems -no check engine light, nothing but when you go for a car inspection it shows on the OBD2 two monitors -O25 & EVA in the red. How do you clear this to remove at least 1 monitor so you can pass inspection. I have driven over 400 miles & no change. It still shows these 2 monitors. HELP!
glad i dont have emissions test in my state or inspections
I'm a lil late, but what state are you in?
+Jimmy Thompson California
Oscar Lopez Sounds like I need to move.
I would guess Maine but as there are no emissions tests but there are still general safety inspections. You can even pass in Maine with the CEL on.
What state is that
Thumbs up, good video. A family member asked me a question, and I googled & found the answer in your video...plus helpful info for them. I sent the link.
A mechanic can put a small "separator" between your O2 downstream and your Cat converter to pass
What is a "separator" ? Asking for a "friend" 😂
if your car does not need premium it will run rich therefore you will put out excess Smaug and not pass your admissions do not listen to this guy
Chris Bevins what the hell is smaug?...(answer) A mental midget..A product of the future generations..U got some learning to do boy.. Start with spelling...let me axe you a question... Did you GRADIATE...Jethro Bodine....
chicago outfit stf
Chris Bevins so u saying we are running rich in finland and other european countries which have 98 as a standard and some gas stations have some random premium
All cars can cope with octane ra going from 87 to 104. No issues will arise.
J0lel the US uses different octane ratings than Europe so a 91 in the US is about a 98 is Europe
I have a 94 Trans Am, I bought new. it has been well cared for. It has 326.000 miles on the engine, and it has never been touched.LT1 V8 engine, Even the timing chain is original. don't drive it much anymore just because, well I just dont . It has recently sat for 2 years without even being started. Had to get a smog test . Charged the battery, it literally started in a 1 second crank, just BOOM , running. Gas is 2 years old, but car was running beautifully. I drove it around for about 10 minutes and went to smog test. Fingers crossed, IT PASSED WITH FLYING COLORS, all tested exhaust items were WELL BELOW maximum. AMAZING. I forgot how much fun it is to drive, so I'm getting new tires, an oil change, and start driving it again. 😊
find a crooked shop that will pass your junk car
Just replace the word crooked with "a sane shop that refuses to support crooked legislation" and you'll be on target.
this is absolute truth
If I knew one...
When you buy a rotary with a straight pipe and your state doesn't let you make your car vintage even tho is well over 25 years old. Fml.
please does anyone know in the metro atl area
It’s a great and reliable video. Was facing this kinda issue back then with my emission test so I had to look for a way, which was how I came across Stray Admin who has got years in experience of helping lots of citizens pass they’re Smog test too
All I had to do was just to hit the RUclips search icon and type in Stray Administration, he popped right after.
Wow we're here at it again, seems I go to praise them everytime I get satisfaction from the platform on RUclips
Here in Indiana there is only 2 counties that have to pass emissions. The rest of the entire state you do not have to pass, you can buy a 500 dollar beater and get it plated on the spot
don't forget if your cat is working below 95% you'll get the CEL... you can always buy a $10 cat-sensor extender... almost always works as far as the check-engine light is concerned. Or try heat-cleaning your cat-converter by driving your car at 4000-6000 rpm for a straight 30 min, sometimes this will even fix it if just carbon-clogged.
You are awesome!!! I just git a rejected smog, sure enough I took the negative cable,off the battery last night, and so I didnt know that I had to,drive,it before taking it in...that is before I just watched this!!! So how much do I need to drive before I can go have it tested again? I want to,thank you so much for this,information!! I dread foing in for smog every year!!$$ NOT ANY MORE!!!
I hate these computers in cars newer cars are a nightmare to work on.
Give me holly carbs,, dizzys and V8,s anyday,never had any problems in those days that could,nt be easily fixed.
to true ferkemall,like I say old is better and easier.
Blame environ-mentalists
Paul G exactly the obd system makes a mechanics job sooo much easier
Carl Bolderoff agreed
hey after resetting my check engine light how many miles should i run before getting smog test? i have a 97 toyota 4 runner thanks
Geez, chicos! Convert to Hemp, so when you run it in for tests, the person will be so high from the exhausts that they will pass it-
problem solved (!).
"Evap" monitor is always the hardest test to complete.
This is why it's a good idea to drive a car from before 1982. This "emissions" stuff is just more BS from your gov't.
What stat tests a 82?
@@davidwamsley5109 Colorado, I've learned recently. It's ridiculous.
This didn't help at all -_- this is all general maintenance stuff. You should have already checked most of this before going to the testing station. How about timing settings? gas additives? engine adjustments? More computer information?
A vehicle will fail for incomplete monitors if:
96-99 vehicle: any more than 1 monitor is incomplete
00-newer : any other than the evap monitor is incomplete.
98-06 diesel vehicle: any monitor incomplete.
07 -newer vehicle: any more than 2 are incomplete.
your welcome.
for smog inspections in Ca.
+the doge TRUE!
Depends on your states laws.
the doge
what about 95!? :(
. Disconnect the battery and you clear the codes in the computer With no codes the vehicle WILL NOT PASS an OBD test, You will have to drive the car for about a week to reset the codes if you run out of license plate you will have to buy a 30 day tag or risk a citation for driving on an expired license. In Ohio that is a 130.00 ticket plus points on your DL.
I heard 20 -30 drive cycles after disconnecting battery or clearing CEL & codes or it'll fail. Seafoam 1 tank. Cataclean on 1/4 tank. Fill with premium. Air Filter. PCV valve maybe. Drive FWY 40 mins.
The tips are appreciated! We have them every other year here. Just long enough for me to forget all the tips from the last time. Thanks!
Lisa Hall 👋 My successful emissions testing pass recipe for several years. Oil change-half tank gas- mandatory 1 litre of methyl hydrate poured into gas tank-If my tires said 35 pounds inflated I would do 45- because of tires on rollers-drive for half hour minimum and pass with flying colours-Methyl Hydrate is the magic potion! Drops all reading way down low...btw there’s a steampunk tendencies group on Facebook very creative metal works etc-and you have great taste in classic rock!
The results of my smog on new cars gets me all the time, I'm an average working citizen and don't thnk expensive helps me in anyway possible, it's why i stick to working with Stray Administration, the RUclips channel page can help at these times we all need to move on the streets and work, that's all I'm literally doing so I'm in big support
Air filter and check engine light on have nothing to do with it..engine light is on for a reason..
Thank you! With your advice I was able to turn around 3 of the 4 I/M "not ready" errors into "READY" and passed the test and saved me hundreds. Thank you!
What have you done ? I'm in a similar situation......
@juliawei8990 I did everything he suggested in the video. I also purchased a cheap scanner (don't recall the name) to see what codes were still showing up. Then (with it plugged in) drove the car at least 50 mph to warm up the engine until most of the codes cleared. As soon as they were cleared I drove to the I/M center to get tested keeping the car on until they were ready to pull it in for testing. Hope that makes sense!?
CA Smog is such a JOKE! Your car can have zero brake pads, blown out shocks and CA says go ahead and drive on the highway as long as your emisssions are low. Such BS!
I have no lights on just the battery was removed and replaced just bought the car last week and it says O2 sensor monitor not ready so they rejected it
I bought an OBD2 from autel al329 and it all checks out all good now
So my evap says unset still and i replaced ig recently and i out 670 miles thru out a week and still says unset. Help plz.
Ours isn't set either, don't know if it will pass here in Texas. 😕

This isn't completely accurate. Your monitors WILL reset to "incomplete" status if you clear a trouble code via scan tool.
I'm glad michigan doesn't test. And my car is a 1995. I removed all of the emission system from my car.
kyle stivers that’s still illegal no matter what state your in we don’t have emissions testing where I live but yet I can still fail a car cause it has not cats or emissions items are taken off cause after all it’s illegal in all states to remove emission components.
In Ohio after the vehicle is 25 Y.O. it is no longer tested.

One more- I temporarily overinflated the drive tires by 10 pounds- being rock solid gives zero resistance on the rollers
Is that real?
So what does that help pass smog or not ?
I do the same thing, except I over-inflate by 5 lbs instead of 10. I pass every time. I may go to 10 lbs over next time just to be safe...

premium fuel doesn't burn cleaner
and causes knock
The Angry Yota Tech dumb ass, your clueless
Premium fuel can actually burn less efficiently and cause more emissions if your car's manual recommends 87 octane gas.
More octane higher the combustion
John Arnold some have more additives but that's about it
at least my emotions passed
apparently in Utah, nothing can be wrong as they won't even look at my vehicle with the check engine light on. ugh.
Best way to pass the test is to reroute the exhaust so it exits halfway the car on the side invisibly, then make a fake exhaust at the original exhaust location which pumps out lavender perfume with a fan 😅
HAHA
CEL = Some Techs call it the Money Light ;)
N_ R cash escaping light 🚦 💷
300.00 in repairs and you will pass, if the CRL is on

same old crap in Waterford mate,i just sit in the car with it running in the car park using a spare key.
Tarsneyisle Estrela,s genus
Problem: If the sensor diameter is bigger than the 1/2 inch drilled hole the trick won't work. Solution: The end of the sensor is covered by a thin steel shroud. Cut the shroud off with a small file & remove. Now it will fit the 1/2 inch diameter hole.
As far as the OBD-II, I wonder how much work it would be to spoof one. Grabbing a port and wire harness from a junk yard and then wiring it into a microcontroller dev board and coding it to mimic the protocol.
Trick #1 - Move to Florida!
As an emissions technician in utah, this movie is junk! From 96 to current it is nothing but an obd2 test. We hook our machine to the car it checks for dtc's and a visual inspection to make sure the cat, egr, air pump, o2 sensors haven't been removed or tampered with. Don't waste your time

Haha, i just pour in e85 to a 15-20% mix with the gas. Works every time👌
Premium fuel does not burn cleaner or more efficient
Everyone just saying “get the car fixed and you’ll pass” not everyone is the lucky few to get a minor $50 car problem l remember I brought a used perfectly running car, could’ve gotten the emissions that same day but it closed by the time I could actually drive with the car, the engine light came on the next day and the reason for it was a bad A/C compressor that needed 2 and a half Grand to be fixed. Not everyone has emergency money like that to just be fixing any type of car problem that comes on the way especially in days like these in 2020.
Just junk the car " problem solved.
Up where I am there's no dyno testing just obd2 for everything gas that is Obd2. Depending on year , yes one or two monitors inc. depending on year. For the evap monitor faults , what I do is fool the monitor as to not run and not display the MIL. And you pass the test. Fixing it is the best but for those that can't afford the cost , well it's an option. Hope you mention that tip.
+Steve Rob how do you fool the monitors?
+Jack Skeleton Hi Jack, only the evap monitor you can manipulate and it will not set the check engine light. I think this might be in part two , I wouldn't want to spoil anything. Check out part two and I will too.
+Steve Rob i hope it is part 2 my mustang is giving so many cel codes out of no where an i have to test my car soon
+Jack Skeleton btw i was asking because my evap canister purge cel came up
+Jack Skeleton Jack diagnosing is not easy for some and multiple codes in my experience are interrelated. Manipulating the evap monitor will not help you if the codes are set from another monitor. I'm sure this channel has plenty of diagnostic vids to help you with.
or just cheat emissions.
My car just failed its MOT IN UK on emissions lol. I know it needs a new o2 sensor as i got P0130 code last week and light came on. We ordered a new o2 sensor and fingers crossed for Friday.
step one: buy a Volkswagen and you're set
+Alex Parkes Good one lol
+RatchetsAnd Wrenches haha
+RatchetsAnd Wrenches I know this is a joke thread, but will a $25 scanner, or even like yours in the video, even work on a VW? or do we need a Vag-com device?
Scanners can be used on all types of vehicles it just depends on what you want to scanner to do
Alex Parkes "it depends" responses are the worst. They say nothing. Assume the person wants it to do everything including make a cup of coffee and go from there...
Thank you for this video!
Emission test is nonsense !
Quit moaning about it and do something to change it.
Yup !
My 2 centavos........a code reader is NOT a scanner......don’t confuse people with this info.
