Hi,
I am being sued for the Eclipse I sold to a guy and he says the car doesn't pass smog because the head gasket is leaking. I know the smog failures are usually due to bad catalyc convertors or oxygen sensors.
Have you heard of an Eclipse not being able to pass smog because of a leaking head gasket? I know gaskets are problematic with the Eclipses but to pin this for a failed smog, it is pretty bad.
I would really appreciate your advice, is it possible to fail smog from leaking headgasket or I can counter argue that it is the cat convertor or oxy sensor? What else could be wrong for a car smog to fail?
Thanks a lot.
