Thats because CO2 is FAR less dangerous than NOx or CO, as the latter are toxic.

Catilytic or not it would never pass some states emision laws...Its in severe need of an engine overhaul...all the oil rings and gaskets are shot...burns a LOT of oil Tongue

Whole quart every couple days. One of the only people I know who accualy keeps a case in the back at all times Undecided

Once warmed up I leave a large smoke cloud behind after every stop.

Which...even though theres not tests here in Indiana...you can still get a 30 day warning to get it fixed. Friend of mine ended up pulled over because his old diesel car (which always left the street full of smoke) and was givin 30 days to fix it and after that if not fixed could be impounded. So hoping no cop is behind me when I come to a stop sign Tongue

Still gets me around...and if they want to say its not emision friendly then they can pay to have it fixed...i dont have the spare cash and I have to drive. F-150 is almost as bad Embarrassed

I know what you mean. I had a valve cover gasket fail when I lived in N.M., got pulled over for excessive smoke. After showing the friendly ploice officer what had happened he let me off with a warning. Before I could get home another not-so-friendly officer pulled me over and began to chew on my butt about how I was polluting his air, all the while puffing on a cigarette. Roll Eyes

I think he turned beet red and then purple when I showed him the warning from earlier. Grin
