Lets talk Real time scanners
Im wanting to get a scanner for my truck. I want to be able to monitor EVERYTHING in my truck as its running. I was looking into getting a Snap-on MT2500. I was gonna use the OBD11 Adaptor with the Primary cartridge Domestic Combination thru 99. With the K-2 key and K-2a key. Is this right or do I need the fast track trouble shooter? What other scanners can I use and what does the fast track do, and what does the primary cartridge do? If I go another route what is out there and what would I need with it?

9 times out of 10 the OBS has already been flashed. If you took a 94.5-95 into the dealer for work they would just flash it to make their lives a little easier

I like my Aeroforce interceptor mounted full time on my steering column. I believe it will display every sensor the OBS computer looks at, two at a time, reads and clears codes, and does the injector contribution test. Apologies for no picture.

You have to enable the Ford protocols to get the other gauges. It's a little difficult to set up I'll admit but once you get it, its pretty slick.
