It's always a good feeling when they pass. Need to drive more to get the emissions correct or get any diagnostics code read. Our 3.0 runs with emissions at lower end of the scale and doesn't get much use so if the emissions are high there could be an underlying problem.

See if anybody near you has the diagnostic software?

That's great news mate, well done.

I'm unsure mine will pass first time after lying since 2000. Stranger things have happened though, can't believe I've got this far and it's almost running. Just a few more coding issues.
