    if they dont pop the hood, just pull the pcv from the valve cover and let it hang there. make sure you use some good quality gas. make sure pcv is new and egr is clean

    failing smog and black smoke are not the same thing.

    well, test only so they will pop the hood and check everything. However, why would unplug the pcv valve help?

    3.) pulled Injectors, cleaned, pilfered injectors from salvage yard (not proud of it.)
    4.) built a freakin injector test station, did flow test.
    5.) replaced plugs
    6.) replaced distributer cap.
    7.) fixed IAC ( replaced plastic gears)
    8.) replaced rear struts
    9.) and finally I gotta put in a new rear wheel bearing.
