Unusual SVX siting

Ron-

I guess they have been sued for damage on AWD vehicles in the past . When I had my 92 Pearlie, they simply measured at the gas tank inlet and at the exhaust but they didn't spin the wheels. The 92 passed both times I took it in since I moved to Illinois. Earl the Pearl has the 92 now.

The new notice I received for my 96 said they would be plugging into the diagnostic connector for all cars 96 & newer. So, the Tech simply flipped open the connector compartment on my dash, connected his machine and said it Passed. No dynamometer. Painless..... Of course, not ever seeing a 96 SVX, I had to show him where the Connector was located. Oh, I forgot to mention, he still checked emissions at the gas tank inlet.
