Scanguage 2
Just thought I would let everyone know auto zone has a discount code: FROST
I bought the scanguage 2 today for 137 bucks total with free shipping and get a 10 dollar gift card too. My 2005 excursion runs a little rough till it warms up. Hopefully this will lead me in right direction and not have to pay dealership to diagnose problem

How old are the spark plugs? Clean the MAF sensor and the IAC.

6.0's suffer from stiction pretty bad, wouldn't hurt to throw some Archoil or similar additive in the oil.

Our 6.0's are complicated, it could be a few things... I recommend the gauge...

Absolutely. Cheap way to see if that was the problem to start with.

I love mine, especially with the BlendMount. Tucks in perfectly right above the rear view mirror.

Do you have a picture of your install? How did you hide the cable installing above mirror

I'll have to dig up the pictures, I know they're buried in the 'What Did You Do...' thread somewhere.
The cable was super easy, it's small enough that it fits in the same notch in the leading edge of the headliner as the mirror power cord. The BlendMount includes a junction block and an extra 6' of cord so you can run it into the headliner, then over and down the A-pillar, under the dash and into the OBDII port.
