Need to pass smog soon

[ReplicaR]

So, I'm going to have to pass smog pretty soon, and I'm a bit nervous about it. Last time I've had my car on the smog dyno, it barely passed. One of the readings (forget which one) was right on the limit. I'd like to keep the car as is, and not take anything off. Everything is legal, it's just the car has a lot of miles, and the engine feels it. I know one good way to do it is to get the cats nice and hot, but I've also heard that there are some treatments that could help as well. What would you guys recommend?

pull the spout connector just before you get there.
It will run fine up to about 3000rpm. the sniffer doesn't need to go that high. I do it every year.
I've tried all kinds of stuff. Pulling the spout was the only thing that worked.

Why would that work though?

There's people that put straight alcohol in their gas tanks and swear by it, what kind and how much I don't know

hey Dmitry,

I have a BMW Barley passes as well. Its not that anything is wrong with it, it just has alot of miles and it shows.

I take the car to compton and find a super ghetto looking smog shop. usually Deep in the ghetto. I tell the guy whats up and say "Can you make it pass for $100"?

It has worked the last 6 years, so its worth a shot for you.

Honestly if you cats are working, just drive the car REALLY hard to the smog shop. 45-50 minutes are HARD driving and get the cats RED HOT. Once the cats are red hot, they pass
