So tell me about California Smog Checks and Registration...
fiatslug87 replied to ExpatMJGuy's topic in The Pub
In the Renix system there is no CEL to illuminate before starting the engine. Trust me, I have three of these in CA, one since 1990. Here is the timer reset procedure. https://nickintimedesign.com/renix-emission-timer-teardown/ -

That info is from my ‘88’s smog testing. You might have to get a CARB compliant cat, I’ll see if the person I know that works at the DMV knows. The check engine light is nothing more than a timer for changing the O2 sensor, either pull the timer box (see picture) under the driver side dash or the bulb. There is no real check engine light in the Renix, your 2001 XJ has one. No codes are stored in the Renix, you should get a REM https://nickintimedesign.com to monitor real-time status. If you put it on non-operational status it must be stored off the street. -

Does it have a cat? For our year vehicles, the CA smog test measures Hydrocarbons (HC), Carbon Monoxide (CO) and Nitrogen oxide (NO) emissions at 15 and 25 MPH. The gas cap is also tested to ensure it can hold pressure as is the whole evap. system by pressurizing the gas tank with nitrogen. The table below has the limits for HC/CO/NO highlighted for your 88. p.s. we would be neighbors!!! -
Congratulations! Have a happy life together and here’s the obligatory “May the Force be with you.”

I think liners are still available from Jeep, @eaglescout526 correct me if I’m wrong. And DMT makes the small splash shields.

I didn’t remove the fuse block, but it was tight. -

It's been a while, but I remember it being a pain to get the old cable off the actuater. It is held in place with these tabs that I recall using a 13mm (?) socket to compress.
