Is there a ratio gas to Methel, I can go by? I have a 84 VW Cabriolet I need to aircare.

If you haven't already done so, I'd run a bottle of fuel injector cleaner through. Mohawk has that 10% ethanol blend fuel they sell - might be worth a try.

Do you think they will let me raise the gvw on the VW to 5001? Haha. The thing runs fine but failed last time I tried. The car's not worth the mechanics bill it would take to make it pass.

I think there is a maximum $$ amount they can force you to spend, before giving you a provisional pass - where is it failing ? CO, hydrocarbons ? NO ? - might help you diagnose problem areas

What ever happened to no fixed address? Air Care is only going to be around until the end of the year thank goodness. What a money grab.

What.......! The insurance person at London Drugs told me it ended at the end of this year. Harder to kill a cash cow than a cockroach. How did you do on your air care, have you tried again?
