It's time for my 1988's annual emissions test. And like prior years, I suspect this gem of car will fail. Anyone have any ideas on how to "pass" this fresh-air shake down? Last year the following "repairs" were done (and the 9000T still failed [in fact it got worse with each "improvement"]); new cat. converter, new spark plugs, chemical/gas treatments, all filters replaced & oil too, high octane gas and 40 minutes of highway riding/driving before each test (3 total)! Thanks for your ideas. J.E. Harris '88 9000T '97 900SE
