I needed that laugh ! Thanks.*


OK everyone :

My little pea brain thinks that if you have a hole in your exaust ( for example - just a hypothetical example let's say " half the size" of your exhaust pipe, that would mean that your readings would be 50% cleaner than if you plugged the hole because half of your emissions are spewing out the hole.

Right ?

Concerning the hole in my exhaust, it was just in front of the muffler, and around 1/8 " X 1.5" .

*By the way, the fellow that tested my car was named Bubba.
( I think it must have been Bubba's break time .)
