Engine diagnostic code scanner
Hello, I have always considered buying a OBDII engine code diagnostic scanner, however, wondered how useful it would be for my 2008 Ford with V-10 Triton engine. Has anyone on this forum purchased one...

Also, you will see a wide price range in scanners. The most basic will let you see and clear a code. As you go up in price and features you will be able to get more information from the system. I have one that I about at Oriellys for about $150.00 I give data as you are driving about what is going on in the system such as o2 sensor, map sensor tps and on and on.
It even went into more complex stuff that I'm getting rusty on and wont describe accurately. Fuel counts etc ??????
One example
AND depending on what you buy be sure it covers your year. obd2 is universal but my old Actron will only go up to the year that it was built in. Obviously it was impossible for them to build into the future but there are probably testers out there for sale that are too old for your vehicle.
