I'm thinking about buying a scan tool for automotive diagnostic work. They have some that run on PCs or palms. The palm idea is intriguing to me. It seems that the capabilities and prices of these va

I've been puzzled for years why there haven't been many, many programs offered to turn a laptop (or now a Palm Pilot, etc.) into a scan tool. Personally, I only have pre-OBDII cars, but the problem i

Well, I think reality has finally caught up to your fantasy. These definitely exist, and are becoming common. Just check the links I provided in the last post. My question is more about the relative

$350 and up for the scan tool. $1500 and up for the laptop. I don't own a laptop and palms have had somewhat limited power until lately. My 2c, Steve I've been puzzled for years why there haven't bee

You forgot: <http://www.obd-2.com/> Although the web site is very spectacular, the program works well. I bought the TRICOM version (universal) and it works fine. I could have bought the cheaper versi

I use LT1-Edit for programming, and Datamaster for scanning on my obd1 GM race car. I've found the pc based tools to be infinitely more useful then the "code" type scanners. Particularly if you are i

I have a Carchip (http://www.carchip.com/) which I received as a gift from a friend but has worked well. It's a PC based solution, but you don't need the PC in the car. The unit is only slightly bigg

I'm lucky enough to have an O'Reilly's auto parts store nearby that will rent a code scanner for $0. (Actually, you purchase the rental unit for $200 and then get all your money back when you return
