If people spent half the time spent on trying to circumvent these systems on actually fixing the car, you would probably be back on the road already.

Kboggs is in a state that does not test cars over 20 years old, so to him it doesn't matter if the CEL is on.
But yeah, I agree with you about fixing the car right instead of circumventing the emissions.
