Subject:Test Only Center BS

Listies,
I have an 85 Westy and got my registration renewal in
Arnold's California and it too has a Test Only Center
requirement for my smog test. First time that's
happened and I want to know what I should/need to do
to ensure that I pass. Meaning adjusting the timing,
putting in the fuel additives etc, etc. I've got a
pretty clean running engine, I think, but I don't want
to go through any hassles. Is a pre-test available at
test only centers? I'm pretty sure that if I have the
time I could get the CAT hot enough to burn off any
bad stuff, do they give you that kind of time? Any
experienced help would be greatly appreciated....
TIA,
Paul Rogers
