Smog Check on 84' Toyota 22R
« on: Nov 05, 2016, 05:42:25 PM »
Looking at purchasing a 84' Toyota and I am new to the Cali. emission thing. The truck is out of state which has no emission test. Supposedly the truck has a re-man motor with less than 15000 miles. Truck has a aftermarket Weber crab., some kind of high flow heads and headers. My question is how hard would it be to get the old girl to pass emissions? Would it even be worth buying out of state?

Do the weber and header have a CARB EO number?

If not,  you won't pass the visual part of the test.

Not sure I would have to ask, would that be in the part number or just stamped in the casting somewhere?

If the truck didn't start as a CA truck, it only has to have the federal smog equipment on it, or equipment that is allowed under federal law to be ran on public roads.  I would buy a CA catalytic converter for it though, being from a state that didn't smog test, it is probably due for a new one,  give it a good tune-up, and see what the numbers are.

I have an '84 carbed 22r. You can't use a Weber on an '84: '85 had smog legal Weber and header avail, not '84. The cat. convertor is what ages on these motors. Also check your vacuum: should be 19 or better. Look at cleaning/replacing the EGR. Take it to a place that will run a check for free, just to see if it will pass. I went to Mike's Smog, in Indio. A very helpful technician/owner. the sensors for the air cleaner, engine temp and EGR are usually broken/missing: good luck with that!

The first time you go to get it tested get a "pre test" done, if you fail by a large amount under a real test they will flag you as a "gross polluter" making your life more difficult in the future.

It looks like it would be about as easy to fix the politics of California than to fix all the vehicles to meet their standards!
When I relocated to the west coast I never considered living anywhere in California.
Good luck!

If a smog legal Weber works on a 81-83 22r and on an 85 22r than it will work on an 84. Whats the difference? A 22r is a 22r, and a smog legal Weber is a smog legal Weber. Just hook up all the vacuum lines and everything else correctly and it will pass, as long as everything else is working correctly. The smog tech isnt going to know any different or even care.

You are right: i just checked lcengineering.com, and they have 81-83 and 81-84  smog legal Weber 32-36 carb: only $439.95. Ouch! What's more, there is no smog legal '85 Weber. Their catalog has changed, for some reason

Look up CARB Executive Order D-133-2 for the Weber exemption on the 22R.
This will cover the 1984 model year, and give you appropriate Weber carb numbers that are SMOG legal in CA.
