Can anyone recommend an inexpensive (under $250.00) code scanner that will pull codes on a Ford Powerstroke Diesel? My 2000 F250 is acting up again.
Thanks!

Does a diesel engine require anything special or will any OBDII scanner work?

If you find one let me know....

My 95 F350 is a half OBD1-OBD2. I would love to find the factory Hickock one but they want a small fortune on EBay. I did borrow a Snap-on from the NYS thruway that they don`t use any more but they wouldn`t sell it to me or loose it in there paper work shuffle.
