My wife and I just recently purchased coach #210 a 1989 widebody with a tag. It is powered by an 8v92 and has a 4 speed Allison. Thing runs great. Has a pretty good pull to the right, but that is being remedied as we speak.
I am a life long gear head, however it's always been gas powered cars and trucks and mostly GM. With the exception of body work, largely because I hate it, I am a hands on guy.
So, long way around the barn here, what is a good monitor scanner to keep an eye on the DDEC II system? I did a search and many of the answers are several years old and I know that this type of tech changes rapidly.
I am not looking for something to be a full on diesel tech but I am unsure how much to trust the OEM gauges and check engine lights. It's pushing 40 years old. I does only have 85,000 miles according to the odometer and I know a Detroit is tough as nails so I am not too worried. But, an ounce of prevention and all that...
