First of all, yes we did get some rain during the night.
Not the "storm" we had been warned about, but the mountains did get some snow.
That's a great start for the season.
In California, every 2 years, when we are registering and paying our license fees at the DMV we also have to have our car Smog tested. Its to control the emissions from the cars.
Well our car is OLD... and the check engine light came on. We knew that wasn't a good sign for passing.
We got it tested anyway. Here is the result.
More money flying out of our empty pockets ...
The red line says we needed an EGR gizmo. I called our son Steve and said help ... what do we do?
He looked on Amazon and found the correct Valve and we ordered it.
We asked our Daughter in Laws brother if he was able to install that thing.
Bless his heart, when he was in town for an appointment he came over and with in an half an hour we were in business. I am so grateful for people who know what they are doing. To me it was daunting and I didn't even know what that thing was or where it went under the hood.
Dave took the car into the Smog Genie place yesterday and PTL, it passed the Re-test.
Just ignore this picture below. Somehow I can't delete it. Sigh I'm so non-techie.
Now we can get our tags and be Legal..
We are so grateful to have people in our lives that can help us when we don't know how to do something ourselves.
Always be Grateful
Always be Kind
