Inspection Failure...

Took the car in to get it inspected and it failed because 4 systems were in a "not ready" condition. No codes have popped in in a few years. No new battery. Two conditions that may have a bearing on this:

1. Filled the tank up this morning
2. 400 pound dude squeezs his fat arse in my Sparco's, flogs the pedal and promptly stalls the car when applying the brake test. Restarts the car and drives it into the garage where he hooks up the diagnostics.

Could it be the stall reset sumptin in the computer or is the computer going tits up?

'Not ready' is usually from the battery being disco'd and not enough drive cycles since it was hooked back up.

Or it could be a clueless inspector.

Go to a different place. I had one place fail me because the headlights were too low on a lowered car. Drove down the street, other place passed me. Before you decide it is you make sure it is not them.

You need better friends.

I'll second that motion. Buy or borrow a code reader so you can know when the "not ready" items are ready. They will pass you with 2 "not ready" indicators.
