No. It won't pass smog here in California because I still have two incomplete monitors. EVAP and Secondary Air are still showing incomplete on my OBD2 scanner. Yesterday I had catalyst incomplete as well, but that is gone now.

I've driven over 150 miles, followed all the ridiculous drive cycle instructions, done a mix of highway and city, but I still can't get these two monitors to complete. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Is there a different way to tackle this problem? There's an interested buyer with cash who wants to buy it tomorrow, but I can't sell it till it smogs.

Thanks for the help guys.
My experience with those two readiness tests is that they can take forever to complete. Even when I read upon drive cycles (which can differ from manufacturer to manufacturer). and tried to do them to the letter. Sorry I can't help with a quick fix
