2003 dually 6.0

Well finally I have got the title straighten out and the truck is mine, started it up last weekend after changing all the fluids after sitting for 7 yrs. It started up after turning over about 6 times injectors was stickily badly but cleared up after about 5 mins.


I was wondering which Blue tooth code reader is the best to buy I have OBD check already installed On my tablet.


Any help is greatly welcomed

Android seems to play well with most of the inexpensive adapters on Amazon/eBay etc. The latest and fastest adapters are ELM based version 2.1.

You may want to consider buying a pair of adapters, one Bluetooth and the other a wired USB. While being wireless is sweet, the bluetooth units can disconnect during cranking and have to reconnect, causing you to loose a few second of data at start-up. The wired units don't have the longer wireless handshake to go through. You'll use the wireless unit way more but there may be times you need to see those few seconds at start-up.
