Has anyone found a way to get past emission tests?

no, really. i just came back from the shop and the guy told me there's no real way. not even resetting the codes because that sends off a signal that it's being reset, then you gotta wait. i got money to dick around with to fix o2 sensor problems. and still haven't found why i have a cyl 1 misfire (i've checked the plugs and wires) i thinks it's parkway ford's fault for sending me a crappy head (since they were lousy with service, didn't send all the parts, and they sent me one cracked head first shipment). only thing i heard is buying a chip that goes into the obd port and tricks the tester but i never actually seen one. any ideas?

You can pass as long as they dont do visible inspection. Yea you gotta wait after you reset the codes. The CPU keeps that in memory or something so smog machine picks it up. Just get some Mil eliminators cause they trick your computer into thinking you have cats. Then it tricks the smogs computer


With the cylinder 1 missfiring i would look at fuel injectors or coil packs maybe your fuel injector came unplugged
