um...no. if your car was running rich, it would have high emissions. if you lean the carb some, your emissions will "magically" lower. therefor, you can now pass inspection. it does work like that. i don't see how they can scrutinize you more? they run the car on a dyno with an rpm gauge and an exhaust probe. unless his is old enough for an idle test. the car would sit at idle, then rev up to 3K, then back to idle. in either case, an owner can simply tune their carb and pass emissions no problem. k thanks
