Did You Fail Emissions Testing?
If you car didn’t pass the emission test, there are several reasons why that could have happened. Here are three specific reasons why your car might not be able to pass a state inspection.
Faulty Ignition Systems
The systems that ignite the gas in your engine can impact the emissions from your car. If you have bad spark plug wires, old or worn out spark plugs or a broken distributor cap, you car is not likely to pass inspection.
Vacuum Leaks
There is a sensor in your car that measures the internal combustion of the engine’s electronic control system. If this sensor isn’t working properly it can cause leaks in the vacuum lines of your car. These leaks will give your car a bad report during an emissions test.
Defective Oxygen Sensor
The oxygen sensor measures the amount of oxygen in the exhaust. If this sensor is not in proper working order your car is likely to produce exhaust with higher toxins in it.
