Double J Veteran / Moderator Apr 3, 2008, 5:45 PM Post #2 of 3 (2022 views) Re: emissions Sign In I guess first off,how does it run? Check engine light on at all? I would start with a complete tune up including spark plug wires....change all filters. Change the engine oil and oil filter. Have the system scanned for any trouble codes. How many miles on the vehicle and why was it sitting for 2 years? Maybe look into replacing the catalytic converter and oxygen sensors. Does the engine burn oil?..any smoke from the exhaust? Definitely replace the battery with new.......system needs to have proper voltage to operate correctly. What were the failed specs.? Just throwing stuff out there..see what the others say burdawg2 Novice Apr 5, 2008, 12:26 PM Post #3 of 3 (2015 views) Re: emissions Sign In car runs great gets 28 mpg. no smoke,battery new.no engine light on.only code is a code 34??? car was in storage for future use but the guy decided to sell it. car came from nj and passed all emissions there since new(I saw paper work) it has 138,000 miles. The exhaust is new from the motor back.I spoke with the local dodge dealer and they said it needs a re-flash on the computer.   Email This Post   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
