Being in Minnesota I've never had to deal with Cali. emissions before. Is there a list of what's different so I don't have to worry if, say, some random little engine part I get from the junkyard has to be Cali? advTHANKSance.

but, i think all those subtle changes are only enforced on car makers that sell new cars there. i don't they expect your average car owner to retrofit all this stuff on his car just because its in cali now. as long as it passes all the normal sniffer tests and has an egr, then it i think thats all there is to it.

I'm pretty sure that's true. I think my my parent's honda civic is federal spec, they bought it new in 94 in pennsylvania and we moved here to cali the same year. I think what my mom said was they inspected it (not sure if it was just a visual inspection or if they smog it) and since it passed they didn't need to change anything. and the thing has never failed a smog check since.
