The one I know of is called "Guarantee to pass". I didn't work for me and made the readings worse (I needed a new O2 sensor). They gave me a refund after I mailed in the receipt. They probably figure most people won't bother and a few will get lucky and pass. It seems that this should be the next subject of Mythbusters. People would rather spend 100 dollars on all kinds of stuff that won't fix their car rather than 30.00 on a O2 sensor that actually might help, or on code scanner that will let them figure out what is going on.
