Smoke Opacity Test
2012 and Older Model Year Trucks
Service Description
Our Smoke Opacity Test is an essential service for non-OBD diesel and alternative fuel vehicles, typically those manufactured before 2013. This test measures the opacity, or thickness, of smoke emitted from the exhaust using CARB-approved SAE J-1667 smoke meters. By assessing the particulate levels in the exhaust, we determine if the vehicle meets California CARB Clean Truck Check emissions standards. The test results are then documented and submitted to CARB to ensure compliance. This service is crucial for heavy-duty vehicles to remain compliant with California regulations, avoid potential fines, and ensure they are road-legal.
