Do they even do emission testing?

Thanks, maybe Nevada could learn a thing or two from Kansas. My car is due for emissions in August, it will fail in its current state. The exhaust manifold gasket blew since I had it tested last year. Another $150 I am going to have to spend that I should not have to.

Dude,

Get yourself some Kroil or PB Blaster, a good set of wrenches, and a Fel-Pro exhaust manifold gasket -DIY. As long as you can find some shade to work in, should be easy enough.

I didn't do all my own car work when I was 12, you know, I built up to it over the years. So can you.
