It’s a great and reliable video. Was facing this kinda issue back then with my emission test so I had to look for a way, which was how I came across Stray Admin who has got years in experience of helping lots of citizens pass they’re Smog test too
Excellent explanation. TOTALLY agree with first three. But, maybe B4 replacing a Cat, super expensive: 1. Fill with premium gas and try fuel injection cleaner or a fuel injection service with some good Gas Cleaner like Sea Foam. Then use Catyclean for last 1/4 tank, and refill with Premium. Then, B4 the Smog Check, run the car at least 10-20 minutes at highway speed, and keep it idling b4 the smog. A hot engine burns cleaner. Also, don't disconnect the battery too soon b4 a smog bcuz it clears the codes and registers too many incompletes. Needs 25-30 start-stop cycles for most cars to pass.
Smog test are really stressful on upkeep made me find a way everytime i buy a new car, this made situations hard but seems UA-cam and Channel's like Stray Administration represent a stress free civilization making these fast for our purpose...💯
My 2008 Nissan Altima failed the emission test and could not find the cause. Sparkplug, Injectors, MAF, Oxygen sensors, Catalytic converter, Piston rings everything was addressed but the problem still persisted. Finally, someone noticed that the temperature gauge was always showing a very low value. And it was because the thermostat valve was faulty and was stuck open and the ECU was sensing it as cold start condition always and the fuel air ratio was running rich. The fuel economy was much better after replacing the thermostat valve but I miss the sporty acceleration and pick-up when it was running rich. Thought might be useful to someone.
I have a 98 jeep with 205k miles on it, & it just barely failed the NOx at 15mph, but passed the 25mph. I was told seafoaming the engine would help clean out the carbon deposits that make it run hotter which causes a higher NOx level. If cars have problems with cooling systems, like air bubbles in the engine, it could run hotter too & need to be "burped" after a flush. I didn't drive it very much before testing it, so it's also recommended to drive it around & burn out the carbon buildup before bringing it in to test. I'm in the process now of trying to lower my NOx levels by at least 34, it failed by 32 on the 15mph test. Everything else was fine though. I'm going to finish seafoaming it, drive through the rest of the gas, change the oil, try to clean out some parts, check lines, vacuum, etc., & then see if that lowers it without having to get a new catalytic converter. That would cost more than I paid for the jeep! Hope this helps too, a lot of people recommend seafoaming before a test as well!
It’s a great video, but recommendations from this platform made me come about stay Admin, he’s real good at passing the emission test and is legit AF, to think we all had to just hit the UA-cam search icon and type in Stray Administration, he’ll pop afterwards..
My 1995 toyota corolla failed 😔.. from1/10 they guy said my car was a 10..car runs perfectly fine no codes no problem..but I do admit I haven't changed oil, plugs air filter and etc in quite a while..it was all my fault..next step is all the above mentioned..gotta change all that..
A high quality video with reliable tips and skills, but mine was carried out by stray admin, he makes it possible for you to pass without attending any test or procedure, in a busy person so I had no time for emission test and still went well anyways.. I only had to hit the UA-cam search icon and type in Stray Administration, popped right after..
Problem I had with my 97 Camry was the Catalyst Monitor wouldn’t switch to the readiness status. Drove the car for the next 4 days reaching almost 200 miles for all the I/M Readiness Monitor to be in OK status.
What I do when the check engine light is on I disconnect the battery to turn it off and run the car for like 30 miles and arrive at smog check place. Hot and Ready hoping it passes I just check the tire pressure make sure there at proper pressure
Hello, I have a question if My car had the check engine light on but after like a week the light just disappeared by itself but I checked the computer and the problem it had still there but the check engine light hasn’t been on for like a week already, Can I pass the smog even if the light is not there but the engine still has the codes on?
if the check engine light comes on when you first turn the key to the key on engine off position and then goes off after the engine cranks , you ll most likely pass ,but if the light never comes on even when you put the key in and turn it , then it wont pass , most likely your light bulb is out for the check engine light or they covered it up on purpose so it shows no malfunctions, very common practice in los angeles
I have no problem with gases emitted as it is passed and clear but my car, a Jaguar 1999, show Code 1000 on ODB2 scan, that is no error code but INC or incomplete drive cycle. Unreadiness. I did the drive cycle as I could understand but it still wont change and I don't see the completion of cycle even after 1 month and hundreds of miles... Can you help me as to what I should do?
The problem i have is the p1164 code even i replaced the o2 sensor and i spent 180 dollars for it and i know i cant the test with the check engine light on 😤
but what about passing nox at 25mph and failing at 15mph? obviously the systems are functional at 25, because its overcoming something with the higher rpms. Would that be exhaust leak?

I failed four times then I drive it in the highway for 16 miles without turning the engine off. Passed!

Your intro with that tach was pretty badass
Hey I just had help from deelscafe
That guy is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Contact him on instagram he is very legit
That was a cool intro :)
Too many intros for me.
What I do when the check engine light is on I disconnect the battery to turn it off and run the car for like 30 miles and arrive at smog check place. Hot and Ready hoping it passes
I just check the tire pressure make sure there at proper pressure
Alex Jaramillo actually that worked for me
I take it its an OBD1 car since yoy would fail the readiness test if it was obd2

If you don't have a egr what else beside catalytic converter

What state? Depending on the place you go that shouldn't be an automatic fail.
Thanks for the tips
The problem i have is the p1164 code even i replaced the o2 sensor and i spent 180 dollars for it and i know i cant the test with the check engine light on 😤
what if my car don't have a erg 1999 civic
but what about passing nox at 25mph and failing at 15mph? obviously the systems are functional at 25, because its overcoming something with the higher rpms. Would that be exhaust leak?
I’m having this issue with a 94 Mighty Max I just bought
Also running Supreme gas (91) octane a day before the smog helps as well. And also make sure your car is warmed up before you go.
Good inf. Brother thank you.
