My 93 Explorer with 217K miles just failed a California pre-smog test (the low rpm part - the high rpm part was OK). It wasn't hooked up to the State of CA database so I'm OK so far. It passed smog two years ago without a problem.
The repair shop which just did a service for me (changed the plugs, fuel filter, etc) said they believe the catalytic converter/s are plugged. They also said they got a strong smell of sulphur.
My smog test/registration is due in four days and I need HELP!!!
I don't want to have something replaced that doesn't need to be, and suggestions regards the smog test (test only in my case) are welcome. I want another 100K miles out of this Explorer - and I don't want the State of California to take it away. Thank for any help!
