I took my ride to get inspected.... it threw 4 not ready codes so I drove it 60 miles... cleared one had 4 left...... does this have something to do with the SCT tuner? I know it should go away w/ driving after a re-flash but how long??

If they are readyness monitors that havent passed, depending on which ones it could be.

A readyness monitor scans a particular system, ie oxygen sensor heater circuit, evaporative system and others, to see if there are any issues. You driving the car thoes miles will help but some need other peramiters to run. Some need coolant temp below X degreese, and others need it above X deg.... while still others need to be driven for x amount of miles with below a half tank of fuel or whatever. Some are pretty specific.

I just passed it! The tuner reset the PCM making the system fail the readyness test... After 100 miles (since yesterday) and 30 bucks in gas it passed. I wont make that mistake again.

Here in Mo you can't They take pictures and thum prints. But here if you drive less then 12000 miles in 2 years you can ask for a exemption form and just get the safety.
