Since Ny has no sniffer test on the inspection, as long as you have no CEL codes for 100 miles , they can just plug in the machine to your obd2 port and pass you. Thats how most people that know the shops get away with it. It all depends on the shop.

...before the lancer i had a ford probe and it had an exhuast leak ( i had the parts coming but i needed inspection to keep driven it) ... i went to one place they said i failed... went to another place...the guy scanned my registration looked at my lights and slapped a PASS sticker on my windshield.

All cars prior to OBD2 (pre 1996) cars still have the sniffer test. This is the most logical way to do because with OBD1, just about every manufacturer had their own design with the diagnostic port so the inspection machine cannot have every obd1 diagnostic port available. With OBD2, every car has the same port and is accessed the same way.
