I know of a single turbo Delorean that has no cat that passed the strict New York City Emissions test (that they do on the new dyno style machine). I was there when they did the test on this car and I asked how the results looked, the tech told me this spec (I don't remember which one) was High and it could be due to and old catalytic converter (the spec was still 4 times lower then the limit that would case it to fail). For a car with out a catalytic converter I say that's pretty good also shows the benefit of having a well-tuned car. BY THE WAY THAT DELOREAN WAS THE HIT OF THE INSPECTION STATION, WOMEN IN THERE 50S AND 60S WERE ACTING JUST LIKE LITTLE KIDS WHEN THE OWNER LET THEM SIT IN THE DRIVERS SEAT! There, something positive about a Delorean on this list! william t wilson <fluff-@xxxx> wrote: original article:http://www.egroups.com/group/dmcnews/?start=7913 > On Tue, 21 Mar 2000, Erik Geerdink wrote: > > > Hopefully I won't start any bad discussions by posting this, but could > > someone tell me the procedures of removing the Catalitic Converter? > > > It *will* make you fail emissions, if you are subject to those in your > area. >
