[QUOTE="MikeT, post: 523021, member: 21398"] [B]Don't know if this is totally true or not,[/B] but the service manager at a Pep Boys I used to work at once told me that on an older car with worn rings, that if you changed the oil right before the emmissions test, the car would do better. He said this was because the old oil in the pad had absorbed a lot of gas due to the blowby. The gas in the oil then makes the mix in the combustion chamber richer and gives you higher emmissions. [B]I don't know if this was true or not,[/B] but he said he used the oil change techniqie before with good results. Doesn't "fix" the problem, just band-aids it. [/QUOTE]
