Probably a standard rice stop.

Time for a TRD gas cap.

During inspections in IL they usually take off your gas cap and put it on some kinda of suction machine to see if you have a good seal on it. It's not good for the enivornment for gaseous gas to be leaking out.

That happened to me on my Sundance. Just get a new cap they only cost like $7.

No, the gas cap industry doesn't get much business and this was their solution for adding sales

NJ and PA both do it, other states do as well.
In PA, it's a payola scam - you take your car to a registered shop, and pay whatever they tell you and they put the sticker on.
In NJ, it's still a scam, but at least you don't have to pay for the inspection itself and you actually pass most of the time.

time to stuff a new shop rag in the hole

only the DMV inspection stations are free for inspection in NJ
if you go to a private one .. they charge you like 50-60 bucks. If you have something that wouldn't pass inspecition I guess you just pass him a BILL and they'll pass you

You realize that you have to take your car for a smog check every two years, and they'll fail you if your gas cap doesnt hold pressure.... in California, right?
