Scanner recomendations

Hi all,

This is on my 2000 Excursion v10, 235,000 miles

I am dealing with a intermittent miss. One time it set the dreaded PO300
I cleared it and now it won’t set any codes. The miss is very obvious

I did the normal spark plug replacement, replaced boots on the coils, etc
checked for vacuum leaks, all the injectors are ticking, etc.

I think I need a scanner that does mode 6. Wouldn’t mind one that does cylinder balance too.

I am not up to date on what’s on the market and could use some help picking the correct scanner. Or any other tips.

thanks,
Joe

Most people recommend ForScan and the OBDLink connector. I just got mine a few weeks ago and have plugged it in once to get to know how everything worked, but haven''t had a ton of time using it yet.

Here's a recent thread stating the ForScan supports Mode 6
