CA Bus Smoking Issue
Dick, to stop the smoke, I let the turbo spool up a bit before hard acceleration.

Greg or any California forum member,
I have a question for you. Every two years, we in some areas of Washington State,are required to pass the "Emission Check Program".It tests factory-installed emission control systems on gasoline and diesel vehicles 5-25 years old, and will identify vehicles whose systems are not working properly. If your vehicle does not pass the test you can not renew it's license unless you get the problem fixed. If your vehicle passes the test you will receive a certificate stating that it does and all is good.
I'm a bit concerned about driving in California sincemy bus does smoke some when accelerating and I know that California is cracking down on that. Not anymore thanmost all big dieselrigs but it does smoke.So here's my question: Do you know if the state of California will except another states current emission certificate when it comes to the smoking problem that these busses typically have, especially just after starting to move away from a stop light?
Regards,
