Smog

Tyerman got the car to pass smog ($450 later) by replacing plugs, wires, cap, rotor, carb base gasket, and general mussing. The car not only passed smog, but generally seems to run better, except for at idle. It shook like a scared puppy at idle. I think I have that resolved by making the choke stay partly closed... the system has been running way lean anyway. I think a fresh carb is in order eventually.
