Oregon doesn't regulate vehicle emissions.  Only if your vehicle is smoking badly enough to impair the vision of other drivers.

Well, I guess from what I just heard that the Portland/ Metro area does do a testing when you renew your registration and your license.  So if your vehicle doesn't pass inspection they impound your vehicle and sell it for parts.   :gap:  Sucks that Oregon has finally started to do this but I guess it is inevitable.  As for the propane setup, I have heard it is all in how you adjust the settings of the injectors and timing, best bet would be to call them and find out.

WTF??  Is it only in K-falls and/or Jackson county?  I have never had to do this with my truck since I have owned it and I live in GP.

Oregon has a law any vehicle over 20 years old does not have to do smog testing. i had to do it with my blazer in Medford. the DMV required the pass to renew my tags and change over the title.
