The yellow sticker tells what equipment was fitted on the car from the factory.

If the sticker doesn't call for it, it isn't required to retrofit it, unless you've moved the car to California, which had different rules than anyone else and does require retrofitting of equipment that meets California standards.

As far as the unleaded fuel restrictor goes, there isn't leaded fuel available now in general distribution, so that's really a moot point.

My current '78 99L had a header on it when I bought it, and no CAT. (The "Unleaded Fuel Only" sticker next to the filler neck was the giveaway.) I had to fit a CAT system, despite the fact that the car passed the DEQ test without it, because the yellow sticker says I have a CAT. I tried (without success) to argue that the CAT was not a 49-state _requirement_ until 1980, except that many cars in the west had them because they were sold as high altitude cars (I live at less than 150 ft above sea level, but there are 3500-4000 ft mountain passes within a couple hours drive). My first 99L, originally sold in Connecticut, had a CAT, although it wasn't required there. If I lived outside the Portland Metro area, I wouldn't have to even test the car, but any car built in '75 or later has to be tested here. Medford only requires cars less than 25 years old to be tested, and the rest of the state has no test.
