Axel, sorry dude. Government's already involved and on their side (auto repair industry) part of the whole ODBII federal regulation. In NJ, you can pass emissions (probe in the tail pipe a la Cartman) but if you have a CEL you have to go get it serviced, took me a year of trying to get the damned thing fixed.

Yeah, don't look to the government for help, they're already owned by the special interest groups.
