You mean a $3000 (very cheap version) 5 gas analyzer? Or go for
the nice $75,000 + Bar 97 Smog machines .... Hmm I have an old
microwave out back I wonder.....
But on the other hand. If you do know someone that is a
mechanic/smog tech. Or even in some cases you can talk to a smog
tech (who will most likely charge you..) you can get it done
