I have Cummins PowerSpec. Reads engine parameters. ECM gives following info:
Engine faults-(codes)
Total (lifetime) ECM hours, fuel used, idle time, idle fuel used, engine hours.
Trip totals, trip time, distance, idle fuel and total fuel used, drive fuel and distance, number of coasts out of gear,total top gear time and distance, sudden decelerations, maximum engine and vehicle speed, service brake actuations, trip fuel used and fuel economy, engine running not moving time, and a few dozen others.
FWIW- The computer shows 7 sudden decelerations since new (2001) I remember all of them and a few more.:E
The next time I have our coach in for service, I would like to know all of those answers just for curiosity sake.
