At the time, they didn't even do emissions testing, it was just drive it down the street, slam on the brakes, honk the horn and pull into the garage looking at the lights in the mirrors. <br /><br />One time, a service guy said, "I smell an oil leak but I don't see it".

Guy didn't even check the oil.<br /><br />I passed the inspection, my engine died a month later.Adriannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15300514.post-6630546824254250352010-05-10T16:46:16.879-07:002010-05-10T16:46:16.879-07:00Same sorta deal where I get my car inspected.

They actually give you some sort of knife looking thing to peel off the old sticker yourself and you slap on your new one. It's definitely a slack jaw kinda joint.. Then your legal for two years!
