Default Re: Emissions: "Not Ready"

Old thread i realize, but two things to keep in mind when emissions checks are not ready. The oxygen sensor check may never complete if you do lots of short trips. With obd2 diagnostic tool connected, it took me a 13 mile highway trip to get a completed test. The evap check actually requires that you cycle through most of a tank of gas to complete. After a battery replacement it was not ready for well over 200 miles! But that was because i was only putting in a few gallons of fuel at a time and never filling the tank enough. you need to fill up to around 3/4 tank, and then drive to around 1/4 tank to complete that evap check.
