Not a standardized test, more a memory check for Ray ;-)

I must admit, some of your answers are better than the real ones!

I'm impressed, of the answers provided, on 2 are incorrect. NOx is oxides
of nitrogen,which is not the same as nitrous oxide. TVIS is Toyota variable
induction system.

For someone who doesn't look at that stuff every
