But 97.993% of all motorhomes are rear wheel drive.

Hello folks.

In the original thread I promised to post the numbers indicated on my California smog certificate for my 78 Royale. Then I found I had misplaced the certificate (Doh!). Well I happened upon it today.


The two measurement categories are at idle and at 2500 rpm.
My idle was 983 rpm and the other one was 2497 rpm. CO2 % was measured at 13.4 at idle and 13.5 at 2500. O2 % measured 0.1 at idle and 0.3 at 2500.

Hydrocarbons in parts per million indicated the maximum allowed, average and measured amount. The max allowed at idle is 300 ppm and at 2500 rpm it's 350 ppm. My average at idle was 99 ppm and at 2500 rpm it was 95 ppm. The measured amount at idle was 68ppm and at 2500 rpm it was 47 ppm.

CO % (carbon monoxide percentage) had the same three categories - maximum allowed, average and measured. The maximum allowed is 3.00 % at idle and 3.5% at 2500 rpm. My average at idle was 1.10 % and at 2500 rpm it was 0.9 %. The MEAS or measured amount( I think) was 2.33% at idle and 1.84% at 2500 rpm.

And of course the last column had, for idle "PASS" and for 2500 rpm "PASS"

Sorry for the delay in reporting.
