[DML] Failed CA Emissions UPDATE (still bad)

["valleyrat12" <valleyrat12@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello gang,

Well, I am at wits end and more or less at the end of my 
mechanical ability. I performed a full tune up including new 
cap/rotor, wires, spark plugs, new cat, new O2 sensor. My car 
runs great, good acceleration, pretty good idle (hunts a little bit 
100 rpm or so) STILL FAILED SMOG!!

I am going to take the car the Garden Grove and have the guys 
do their thing again.  They are really nice and understanding 
about this whole thing I must say.  

Any more ideas out there? The smog tech said that he thought it 
could be a small timing problem or that the car was not totally 
warmed up.  I only failed the NOx portion again, barely. Ill post 
the results later tonight.   I thought NOX was from HIGH ignition 
temps, not from a cold engine.  BTW, none of these smog 
people have even seen a Delorean before; they look at it like it's 
a space ship or something.  Could they be doing the test 
wrong??  

Very frustrated
