Jeep emissions work in Davis, CA

Aug 04, 2005 3 Replies

Hey,



Anyone know a jeep-friendly mechanic who can do emissions work on a '85 Jeep CJ7 in the Davis, CA area? I had it Nutter bypassed just fine for a few years, and then it failed smog as a gross polluter. I tried to put everything back, but not everything seems to be working now (computer or stepper motor seems to have issues). I don't want to go pay for the initial retest+inspection that a shop will charge, since I've already mostly isolated the problem myself.



It would be nice to find someone already familiar with this specific issue, rather than a regular mechanic who will spend a long time (and time==$$) figuring out the system initially.



Cheers, C



Ok, if it was fine for a few years, why not just fix what is now broken rather than try to put it all back like it was years ago?

What were the emissions readings?

Tune ups do them wonders, mine eats caps and rotors..... A carb kit is needed every couple years. They only cost $20.00 or so.

LOL....."Nutter" and "gross polluter" in the same sentence. Imagine that!

What you need is the "real" mechanic, Mike. He "Nuttered" his CJ and gets a sweet 23mpg while smoking the tires off it in 5th gear from a stop. LOL
