George mentioned that�California will demand you re-instate a carb on a post '75 vehicle - and that's�very useful�as this coach may well end up in California. Is this a flat-out rule for CA or does it depend on the inspector?

There may be an inspector or two that will look the other way when the can't find the carburetor, but I would not count on it.

I took my '78 to a Smog Referee for modified vehicles. (I mean, duh. There are lots of hot rods out there.) It turns out that at the time Howell did not have a CA Executive Order for GMC Motorhomes. At the time they had and EO for their Jeep TBI and had applied to CA for GMC. (CA is not known for being prompt with these applications.) But with no EO they would not even put the coach on the dyno. I also had added Electronic Spark Control and so that was not going to be part of the EO.

I said to the Referee (a nice fellow) "You know it is making less smog, right?" (How could it miss with the O2 sensor correcting the mixture several times a second.) He said, "No doubt." I was shocked. "So I have to put the quadrajet back on to make more smog to pass smog?" He said, "I am sorry, yes."

It may well be that Howell has an EO by now. There may be another TBI company that has an EO.

'74 Eleganza, SE, Howell + EBL
Best Wishes,
George
