how hard is it for people in ohio (if any) to pass e-check, in other states, if you have an emissions check how hard is it to get the 7 to pass? in ohio i've seen the "guaruntee to pass emissions test" bottle junk but need to know if anyone has tried it....

the acv (air control valve) is what the air pump blows into, its job is to put the airpump air into the exhaust ports, up to about 2500rpm

well... it wasn't difficult at all for mine... and sssshhhhh! don't tell anyone, but i don't have a cat on it... its straight pipes all the way back... (they bolt in where the cat used to be) the car was this way when i bought it, so it wasn't my doing.... the only thing i did was i ran a can of carb cleaner and used mid-grade gas... it passed with flying colors...



so, i doubt that you will have any problems getting yours to pass... as far as the 'guaranteed pass' in a bottle stuff... i'd be kinda wary of it... God only knows what all is in there....
