Default 89 YJ failed smog!

I failed emissions in my Toyota recently. I got a bottle of "Garunteed to
pass" emissions formula. I added it with a full tank of gas and ran in
nearly empty, then I added another bottle and went for a 20 mile hard drive
before going directly to the emissions station.

Passed with flying colors.
