The Jeep failed the retest yesterday. Many readings have improved since the cooling system fix, but CO still is too high. So I'm going to have to play the Drive Clean game which starts with diagnostics by a certified facility.

My mechanic has faith that the folks he's recommended will be able to figure out what needs doing. I suspect the catalytic converter, even though it was replaced not long ago. The good news is that it's still under warranty. Which will probably mean it won't be the problem - right?

Indoor bad air from cigarette smoke disturbed my sleep last night. Or maybe my sleep was disturbed by the upstairs folks coming in and after that I was aware of the smokey smell. In any case, our apartments share a forced air heating system so if they smoke, we breathe it.

The noisy comings and goings at ungodly hours isn't new, but smoking indoors is. Earplugs have done pretty well on the noise front. I'm not about to plug my nose though! One incident isn't worth complaining about IMO. Two will be.
