    Hi all.

    Does anyone know what the test limits for CO, HC, and NOx emmisions are for a 1983 400i?
    The car will be tested in Nevada. Probably same as 49-state. I do have a 5-gas analyzer
    to do some pre-test tuning. But no idea what the limit values are.

    Any help ?

    Thanks :)

    NC no longer requires tailpipe tests for cars older than 1996. No more problems! Cars still have to pass visual inspecton (nudge, nudge;wink, wink).

    Would not be surprised if other states scrap their tailpipe tests as more and more require just OBD-II MIL checks.

    It's an 83. Keep it unregistered for one more year, then it qualifies as an antique. No more smog testing.

    I tried calling the NV DMV. That worked out just about the way you would expect... Won;t be getting THAT 2 hours of my life back :( I tried serchign thier website also. No luck.

    My reading is that vehicles are exempt only from 1967 back in Nevada. Grrr
    I guess I will just wander over to a smog test station and ask what the limis are.

    So often the simple answer eludes us :)
