Here's the deal: my sister owns a 2004 F-150 with a 4.6L Triton V8. The truck is currently licensed in Indiana, where there is no emissions testing. But she will soon be licensing the truck in Texas, where an emissions test will be required.
If her truck needs any work done in order to pass the emissions test in Texas, she would prefer to do that work while she is still in Indiana, as it would be more convenient and probably less expensive. I will help if some simpler things need to be done. I probably wouldn't tackle a catalytic converter, but would be able to replace sensors, for example.
So my question to the experts: what types of things would be most likely to cause this vehicle to fail a Texas emissions test? Our approach is speculative, we don't know that it would fail. But if there are some obvious things that should be tended to, we would prefer to do that here in Indiana where we have a nice garage to work in.
Anyone familiar with this particular engine and/or the Texas emissions testing procedures? Is the test demanding or an easy pass?
Thanks in advance...
