ya i have the paper work for the shop repair, its a certified smog repair station and have the smog from them as well. however im not sure if it was dirty of not. i think im gonna just get a dirty smog and deal with it later.

theres a number of reasons it could have failed i believe
-i replaced the battery and drove it there the following day...im not sure if this system is a learning system or not
-that morning i drove straight there so the car might have been cold, maybe it was cramming more fuel down in the cold weather? i know my other car does that alot(rotary)


i cant tell if its a stock cat.....its new i can see that but they welded it on so yeah. i need to check the timing and cap and rotor. however the car runs great. EGR is intact, only thing is its hard starting but i believe its the cold start time/temp. after the second kick she turns on strong. usually in the cold she rumbles to get to idle for a few seconds.
