I bought a car from a guy in MA and tried to get it inspected here in NY. Wouldn't pass due to the compression brake fittings on it.

The car had passed inspection in MA in Sept. 2008.

Cost me over $200 to fix it. It would have been more except my friend owns his own shop. The good thing was he also discovered a weak section of brake line.

I had a friend look at the car who lives in New Hampshire. He wasn't aware of such a law, but he doesn't own a shop. Since it happened I've read quite a few states don't allow those fittings. So I'm interested in learning what MA inspection law says about it.

Thanks.
