Save gas! Maintaining your vehicle is the best way to keep your vehicle running efficiently. Got a CHECK ENGINE or SERVICE ENGINE light on? We have a ton of videos on locations of Emissions Control Components such as PCV Valve, Oxygen Sensors, EGR Valve, Vapor Purge Solenoids, and Soooo much more! I do my best to answer questions and if you wanna be funny, I got jokes too. LOL. Brake Fluid? Exhaust Bearing? yea, I'll help you with that too.
But..... That is not it!! We work super hard all the time... sometimes 60 hours.. (Not often but it happens.) Then I come home to learn how to edit automotive videos and upload them for you guys. So! We go on a few cool vacations a year and we do reviews of the hotels and attractions. Like Disney world, Las Vegas Circus Circus Room and Water Slides, Helicopter Rides, and So much more.
Stay tuned! We got a lot of helpful content coming out!

I've been asked by multiple people to search up: If the Proposed Rule: Reconsideration of 2009 Endangerment Finding and Greenhouse Gas Vehicle Standards becomes a rule, will ot affect vehicle emissions inspections?
I'll gonna copy and paste the response chat gpt gives me. Can you guys search it too and copy and paste the response? I want to see if the answer varies on who searches it
From chat gpt:
No — at least **not in the way a lot of people online are saying**.
Here’s the straight answer:
---
### **1. What this proposed rule is about**
* It targets **greenhouse gas (GHG)** regulation from **new motor vehicles** under **Clean Air Act Section 202(a)** by reconsidering (and potentially rescinding) the **2009 Endangerment Finding**.
* It does **not** propose to remove **Section 209(b)** of the Clean Air Act, which is what gives California and certain other states authority to run their own vehicle emissions programs.
* In fact, the EPA’s own text says **Section 209(a)** (federal preemption of state rules) would remain in place.
---
### **2. Why smog checks won’t vanish if this becomes final**
* **State emissions inspections** (like California’s smog check) are authorized by **state law** and, in California’s case, backed by a Clean Air Act waiver under Section 209(b).
* That waiver authority is not eliminated by this proposal.
* For inspections to end nationwide, **Congress** would have to change or repeal Section 209(b) — the EPA alone can’t do that through a rulemaking.
---
### **3. Possible indirect effects**
* If the EPA stops regulating GHGs from new vehicles, future federal emissions standards might change.
* Over the long term, that could influence how states design inspection programs for **future model years**.
* But it would not instantly end inspection programs for existing vehicles.
---
✅ **Bottom line:**
If this proposed rule becomes a final rule, **your state’s emissions inspections will continue** unless *state law* changes or *Congress* changes Section 209(b). Diesel deletes also remain illegal under current federal tampering laws.
