I was told to leave another message stating what I wanted, what vehicle, and leave phone number. Ridiculous. BTW, did they check the operation of your wipers? 209
I had no trouble with getting an appointment. They were scheduling them about three days out. No checking the wipers. They only verified all receipts for the chassis and engine and tranny. Drooled all over it and then attached the vin and sent me on my way.

And yes, I will run the pcv valve. And installing the second breather was just a mild inconvenience compared to the 60 mile round trip drive to have the thing reinspected.

Then it's back to DMV to finish the reg process.

One thing I have learned about DMV... Get there just before they close for the day. They will not kick anyone out even if they have to stay till 7pm to finish. And by then, most everyone has left already.
