    I reset the check engine light on my car and drove several short trips, now it's ready for inspection. I've been doing this for 4 years now. :headbang:

    All the chatter about fixing trucks and cars. I remember back when I was a young lad several times fixing an exhaust or muffler using old tin cans. They will hold for a while but usually have to change a couple times a year. They worked and a few times when short of cash, it was great that I could keep the car on the road without having to replace muffler and/or pipes. Back then, it seems they were much more strict on how loud a vehicle could be and would happily pull you over and write a ticket.
