Ford 6.0 Scan Gauge II Question

The ICP is the hydraulic pressure used to fire the injector. There is no readout for fuel pressure. There isn't a pressure sending unit built into the system. A gauge with a screw in transducer (or mechanical) is needed to read fuel pressure. Oil pressure is basically the same, the system is only reading yes/no.

Number 57 fuel pressure test port need adapter hose and fuel pressure gauge

This works well

I am in need of a monitor for my truck also. How do you like the Scan Gauge II? Do you recommend it? What others did you consider?

The ScangaugeII works well but takes time to setup where the Edge Insight is plug and play up and running in about 2min. On my 06 Ford with the Edge Insight CTS I run EOT-ECT-TFT-FICM-EGT-ICPpsi-ICPv-VGT%-all at on time-Boost in the dash-Fuel on the column-Volts off a power port.

As JR said it does work fine. It only takes a few minutes to program and for the price I don't think it can be beat. I have mine set for EOT, ECT, Trans and FICM but can easily switch to others. Travel on

The ScanGuage II can only display data coming across the OBD port. If you want additional parameters like EGT or fuel pressure, you will need to add more senders and gauges.

The SG II did take some time to program with vehicle specific parameters, but once stored does not need to be done again. I would prefer a cycling mode to watch more than four parameters without interaction and graphic color gauges are quicker to read than numbers, but this gauge does everything I need for a reasonable price and can easily be moved between vehicles (enough memory to store my VW and Ford parameter information at the same time).

Have had ScanGauge for 3 years. You really need to measure and adjust speed/distance - I did mine by a 100 mile interstate mile marker comparison, and possibly redo every 15-20K miles to adjust for tire wear. I have found it's fuel measurement extremely accurate (comparing what the gauge measures as used to what it takes to fill up, which is usually a one-time adjustment setting).

I had to adust the speed in my Titan, in My Ford F250 the speed on the Scan Gauge is right on. I used a GPS speed app on my Iphone and also on my Garmin to vefify the speed. FYI...the Ford Speedometer is reading 2 MPH higher the actual.
