Smog Check passed!!

It was time for the Aspen to undergo the once-every-other-year smog check here in San Diego. As always, I was very nervous in taking the car in for the test. When the test was over with, the technical told me "For as old as this car is, it runs surprisingly clean." San Diego county is one of the 6 counties in California in which the smog test is run on a dyno at two different speeds, 15mph and 25mph. Here's how the Aspen tested.

15 MPH

%CO2 measured : 14.1
%O2 measured: 0.7

HC (PPM)
  • Max: 194
  • Ave: 47
  • Measured: 56
CO (%)
  • Max: 1.26
  • Ave: 0.20
  • Measured: 0.34
NO (PPM)
  • Max: 1286
  • Ave: 554
  • Measured: 140
25 MPH

%CO2 measured : 14.3
%O2 measured: 0.6

HC (PPM)
  • Max: 161
  • Ave: 37
  • Measured: 27
CO (%)
  • Max: 1.06
  • Ave: 0.17
  • Measured: 0.31
NO (PPM)
  • Max: 1146
  • Ave: 468
  • Measured: 43

I was very happy with the results. Now, I can not have to worry about it for the next two years.
