Which OBDII reader do you use? Or do you take it somewhere to have it read and for how much? Thanks.

I use an OTC Nemisys scan tool that I bought on e-bay. It's pricier than some but I do quite a bit of work on cars. I seriously considered the AUto-tap scanner but chose the Nemisys tool because it supported OBD I as well as OBD II and CAN.

I use the autoxray 6000. It covers obd I & II and can, and it is upgradable for free on the internet.

I use the c-reader. It was only $40 at Harbor Freight. Just used it tonite on my Expedition and it worked perfectly.

I use the Harbor Freight scan tool also. For $40 it works a charm and has saved me a fortune.

I use a SCT X-calibrator to tune the Expy and a Raptor datalogger to datalog it(Raptor also reads/clears codes).
