I was using an Autel DS708 that I bought a few years ago on Craigslist for $250. It worked well but I just recently picked up a used Autel MS906BT. It is a FANTASTIC tool and does everything you teach. It's available brand new for ~$1300. it was not quite a year old and still under valid subscription. I paid $900 used on Facebook Marketplace and the guy included a 4 channel scope and another year of updates. It doesn't come with any wiring diagrams or any service info, of course. Maybe you've looked at it but, to me, it fits your cost vs capability requirements.
I definitely need a less expensive scan tool for my work but with a sick wife and 2 children it has been really rough upgrading from my DS 708 Autel. I use alot of logic and common sense when diagnosing any modern vehicle. Thank you Paul for another great diagnostic video. Thumbs up
Looks like a decent scan tool and made in the U.S.A. Hard to find information: Renewal subscription is $750/year. Enhanced subscription is additional $399/year. Or when combining subscriptions; $1,150/year. Zoro is listing tool price as $1,569.61. Other dealers a bit more. Thanks Scanner Danner for the tool intro. Keep these videos coming.
Paul,. The Autel MS906BT scan tool can be found for around $1500 full OE with bidirectional tools and some key programming functions. And it has the chrysler 16 pin adapter with other OBD1 adapters.
I'll never forget the Champion spark plug my instructor showed me at the vocational school years ago. It was brand new right out of the box. They forgot to cut the threads into the bottom part of the plug. That kind of makes it hard to screw into the plug port in the head, LOL🤣.
I'm still looking for my first bi-directional scan tool! I don't do this as my day job so I'm strictly combing the used market (Craigslist, for example). They all seem so overpriced, it's depressing.
@@djosbun My first by directional scan tool was the ALLTEL MS906BT it’s around $1500 it’s a really really really good scan tool again due to its price it’s a little slower than some of the higher in models but it pretty much does most everything the higher end models do on the autel line up
Launch x431 pro s mini is a great scan tool for someone looking for an affordable full function scan tool with bidirectional controls. It’s an impressive little tool. You can find them for around $700-$800. The Bosch ADS 525X VCI Is J2534 compliant so you could flash program with it.
I have the ADS625 and use it mainly as a paperweight. Bosch should give me the money back in my opinion. The J-Box takes forever to connect and the tool is also slow. Don't even get me started on the communication range, if I step in the office it is game over! and I have a tiny Shop. I got it brand new and have only used it a handful of times in the 7 months I owned it. My Autel MaxiSys Elite got a great range and lots of functions but I am not a fan of their "Garbage" anymore as everything breaks down although I do not abuse it and keep it in a climate-controlled environment. I cannot get myself to like the x-431 pad 2 either it works but seems sluggish. I hate to admit but most often I find myself using the edge.
Ha! If you're going to do a tune-up and do it right don't forget to change the special screw in the battery terminal. Those wear out and can cause starting problems.
I used to prefer the bosh tools to the OEM tools we had at scool from various OE:s. Volvo vida had very good service info though but I used to print that out and then use the bosch for the work.
I recognized the repair source. I invested in a Mac Scanner and Repair Source was included with it. It is definitely a little weird and missing some stuff. But it works and has done good for me.
Thanks SD for all the videos. Nice to see an old reliable 4.0. I clicked over to Super Mario and looked thru his videos and searched "plug indexing" but was unable to locate the video you were talking about. Not a professional mechanic but lots of experience and this plug indexing was something I was not familiar with and would like to know more.
Great outtakes! Sounded exactly like me working on the transmission removal in my 103k mile Silverado. 🤣 Wow, those plugs were smoked!! Worst I've seen was a Sable 3.0 V6 - measured .100" gap!! HAHAHA! Great stuff fellas.
As always excellent video!👍 Launch has a VCI Thinkdiag for 250$, 2years subscription and updates after it 100$ year. Bi-direction testing, ECU coding. Of course need own tab. I was thinking about Autel MP808, but its 750$, Launch with new Samsung tab not more than 370$.
I get Motor Repair Source through Michigan e-library for free, and I get All Data through Ohio Library for free. I like the Mitchell diagrams, but I can get what I need with the free stuff!
whoa that ADS 525X looks like that might be my starter scanner i like the built in mitchell feature thats a good value i imagine it reads fuel trims and has some bidirectional control i am watching this on my NAPA lunch break .....Hi paul i still need to take advantage of that AES gift certificate i got i still have code too i will use it soon im gonna get the probe kit thank you !!
Good video Professor. Looks nice and warm in Pa. Champs are okay as long as they are the cheapest. I have copper NGK's in my van which calls for Champs. briansmobile1 uses what he calls BFATE bonus footage at the end. Good BFATE. Your biggest fan. You very funny Dr Jones. Praying for our nation. Guys have a great day.
Good videos! As for tools the Ms906bt, maxiscope and your book for 1680 is also a good deal. I'm used to the modis edge but the updates are expensive. For a couple hundred more I decided to give autel a try.
Good video Real good stuff When the air gap contacts get corroded through Time and use quite a lot of HT power is lost could be up to 6 KV normally with a Sound system about 3 KV Is lost, then plug lead with age deteriorate, more lose In HT currant. Seeing the state of the.plugs it's a wonder, that the Jeep started, might be a diff story if the temp was minus 20. I have found through the years and l am 96 now, that Badly corroded dis cap Contacts will give a lot of reduced performance, on engine rpm under load, Flat spot also on accel ration and also contributes to bad starting. Back in the 60s. it was quite common for dis caps to crack and also HT, tracking Inside the cap, they were, made out of Bakerlite a poor type.of plastic, it was Cheap to make. Even some car dash boards Were made out of the stuff, And when it aged the plastic used to crack with temp Change. Some people in days.gone past would carry a spare cap in the trunk, and other things in case of breakdown. Other wise it's a long walk back to Cairo.
Yes, you're right, the Mini is actually $600 the $900 version is the big (Launch X431 V+) one even better than the Verus since it includes 12 and 24 volts Dongle and trucks diagnostic software
Thinking to myself: "What the he** does he mean by 'indexing' plugs?" As I understand it, it the direction the GROUND electrode is facing? Holy craziness! And yeah Paul, I cover the checking gaps on my videos whenever I run into it. The parts guys always tell me they're pre-gapped, but stuff happens that knocks them out a bit. AND it has caused me to catch a MIS-BOXED plug! NEVER assume ANYTHING, unless you like getting "burned". Once again Paul, nice video!
Exactly, the open face of the plug or where the negative electrode ends up sitting once it is threaded into the head. And that BMW Mario worked on has some af ratio swirl, that that plug needs to be directed directly into, for proper firing. It's something along those lines anyway. I think this was a GDI engine too? Mario?
Indexing plugs is no secret to old time bikers. I think it goes back to the days of the early flat head , side valve engine. Not much fuss if you have only two cylinders so the practice continued on into the overhead valve engine designs on the drag strip.
Ya we are seeing more and more car engines that havr this with the plugs. There is a torque spec and then a specific degree of turn, like torque to yeald bolts, but this is to crush the washer to a specific thickness. Crazy.
@@ScannerDanner Oh what a thought.... Imaging having to re-thread or 'helicoil' one of those. There's no way. short of a machine shop, to get that lined up correct...
Loved it SD👍 Honestly your reviews on automotive testing equipment, are as educational as case studies👍 SD what are your thoughts on the performance of IM608 so far (as a versatile tool) Stay Safe Bro❤
Launch sent me a $400 unit (I forget which one) and it was absolute garbage. Haven't looked that way since. Maybe because it was a bottom of the line unit? No Bidirectional controls, slow as molasses and full of glitches.
It's been some time since I've seen the 4.0L six cylinder, but didn't they have the firing order cast into the intake manifold? I'm very familiar with the inline six firing order myself, since all domestic sixes had the standardized firing order of 1-5-3-6-2-4.
Thank you so much 🙏 I've been looking for something affordable that's a tablet style for accessing the web and service info to replace my shitty Solus Edge. That and the wireless VCI I think I'm sold on this little bad boy !! Very much appreciated 🙏 👍
Hi there, hey it's always a pleasure to sit down and watch one of your videos they're so good 👍 thanks for sharing it thanks for no been selfish. i will be getting ur premium videos sooner like this week i don't have any or better saying nothing not even a piece of knowledge nevertheless,I really think I will get a lot of it from you thanks 🙏 again.,and but the way beautiful explained.
My students have nothing when they come into my class too. Start by watching my introduction and navigation video and have at it! I have everything you need to build a great foundation on. I look forward to hearing from you!. Thank you. www.scannerdanner.com/join-scannerdanner-premium.html
Great diag Paul! This video is really making me give a good look at the 4225a, the convenience is pretty awesome! Btw thank you for the shout out! That was a lot of fun! 😆😆
Got it backwards. Bosch makes those diagrams and licenses to Mitchell and Motor. Motor then re licenses them all over the place including Identifix and Motologic. I've complained about inaccuracies in those diagrams and was told Bosch does them and there is nothing they can do about it.
Dinner, love your videos. If indexing and factory plugs are critical I don’t understand why you didn’t use a torque wrench on the plugs? Perhaps it’s because it’s not a GDI engine?Thanks again.
Hi Dan, Thanks for introducing us to the new scan tool. It looks 👌 as far as my pocket is concerned. My question is that in the packing list of bosch there's a lab scope in it or you would buy separately? Other questions is technical.Can you clarify or state more about primary and secondary of the coil?
Why would I lie to you? I'm certainly not all knowing, and spend little time researching the vast amounts of scan tools out there. This was sent to me and I liked it.
I've used a Launch scan tool that was complete crap. One in the $400 range you mention (I have to find the model). Never used the model you're mentioning maybe? Had Launch send me two of them. The first one I actually did a video on it and it was so slow and had so many issues, that I just sent them the raw unedited video and never produced it. It was that bad. Then 6 months later they sent me another unit (same one) with updates and were really excited about it and it was garbage too. Haven't looked at Launch since.
Good video SD , is say diagun v from kingbolen good value for money and after sales help is good too, less than £600 , not sure what that is in dollars , but I think it's great for the money, so worth passing this info on I think .... anyway thanks again Rob mobile man
hey Paul.. could you please advise me on buying an oscilloscope...will a 50mhz picoscope be enough to see waveforms for crank and cam sensors, ignition coils and injectors???
I cant believe nobody has said this, since you know the direction the rotor turns you could have just followed the wires on the cap to figure out the firing order.. No need for google Lol
This wasn't about which one, this was about cost. Of course I prefer my Snap-On Verus Edge but thats a scope and scan tool combo and is way more expensive
Scannerdanner, what’s a good entry level lab scope? Looking to ditch my meter and move to a scope. I work on HD diesels, so needing a scan tool is not necessary.
I have a Pico 2204a. For the price it is a very good scope and does everything i could ask for. It is my first ocillioscope i have bought myself (i have experience with Pico in the shop). Look it up i got mine for £99.00, i had to buy a few other accessories like longer leads and a couple 20x atinuators but they were only cheap to get.
The uScope from my friends at AESwave. It is a single channel pocket scope and the master kit, that comes with an amp probe, ignition adapters and a test lead runs about $400 www.aeswave.com/scannerdanner-c512/
@@ScannerDanner 25:20. when you start looking at the firing order and it seems to show only the cylinder layout. I was curious if you clicked on the next tower if it would have shown the next correct cylinder in the order.
@@ScannerDanner I guess I wasn't clear in what I was asking. I meant if you touched/clicked on the "spark" tower in the image, would it have shown the correct next firing cylinder (i.e. the next one clockwise from the #1 cylinder )
Hi Paul, I follow you a quite a bit, and I recently took a ASE test for electrical, there was a question that stuck in my head and I was wondering if you could help. the question was mechanic a says The Wider The Wire is ,the better it is, B says the longer the wire the better it is. That is pretty much word to word I did go with A ,what's your . thought. I would like to know or is there any videos that you have posted related to the subject?. thank you
What a dumb question. Lol Just remember that the longer the wire is, the more resistance it will have, and the "wider" the wire is, the less resistance it will have due to having more copper conductors. As far as the term "better" goes, that is subjective right? If I need to run a fuel pump that is 7 ft away and I have a choice between a fat 3 ft wire and a thinner 7 ft wire, what am I picking 😆
Love the channel only work on my own vehicles I have learned a bunch watching the videos 1500 dollar scan tools are still a little pricey for me but I definitely understand the blue driver being a minimum scan tool
@@davidfleckenstein6359 the key when you watch me troubleshoot these cars, is to learn the techniques I'm showing, and then modify the tests to fit the equipment you have. For example. You won't have Bidirectional controls with the bluedriver but if you understand the output circuit being tested, you'll understand that you just simply need to meet the conditions for the computer to turn that circuit on. You won't have a way to force it like I do, but it can still be done, using the same techniques with your voltmeter or test light. Hope that makes sense. You'll just need to work a little harder 😉
Sorry but What exactly do you mean by bi-directional scan tool?? Thanks for the review of the bosch tool. you gave a honest opinion. Not a great looking tool
SD most of my instructors told us this at WyoTech!!!
All straight six engines from all manufactures use the same firing order because they all are a 120 degree design of crankshaft.

Hi there, hey it's always a pleasure to sit down and watch one of your videos they're so good 👍 thanks for sharing it thanks for no been selfish. i will be getting ur premium videos sooner like this week i don't have any or better saying nothing not even a piece of knowledge nevertheless,I really think I will get a lot of it from you thanks 🙏 again.,and but the way beautiful explained.
My students have nothing when they come into my class too. Start by watching my introduction and navigation video and have at it! I have everything you need to build a great foundation on. I look forward to hearing from you!. Thank you. www.scannerdanner.com/join-scannerdanner-premium.html
Great diag Paul! This video is really making me give a good look at the 4225a, the convenience is pretty awesome! Btw thank you for the shout out! That was a lot of fun! 😆😆
I got my autel maxidas thst does bidirectional, key programming, key fobs, active tests , everything but a scope but I have a 2204a pico scope.
The ADS is a fantastic tool thanks for share this ☺👌💗🔧
96 was a split year change. There is some parts on the 96 that only exist on the 96.
Yes sir, exactly. Thank you
Are trying to say that Champion spark plugs only last 130,000 miles?
On a stock engine, I only use stock OEM plugs.
Got it backwards. Bosch makes those diagrams and licenses to Mitchell and Motor. Motor then re licenses them all over the place including Identifix and Motologic. I've complained about inaccuracies in those diagrams and was told Bosch does them and there is nothing they can do about it.
20:58 "I've done this before, it's just like playing the drums" Hey Lars, you listening?
Dinner, love your videos. If indexing and factory plugs are critical I don’t understand why you didn’t use a torque wrench on the plugs?
Perhaps it’s because it’s not a GDI engine?Thanks again.
Autel makes the mk906bt for 1300 with bi directional control and can get a 4 channel scope attachment for 400.
thanks
Hi Dan,
Thanks for introducing us to the new scan tool. It looks 👌 as far as my pocket is concerned.
My question is that in the packing list of bosch there's a lab scope in it or you would buy separately?
Other questions is technical.Can you clarify or state more about primary and secondary of the coil?
I've followed you and bought your book. don't lie to us. I own a Thinkcar scanner that's bidirectional for under 200.00.
Why would I lie to you? I'm certainly not all knowing, and spend little time researching the vast amounts of scan tools out there. This was sent to me and I liked it.
Launch diagun iv. $400. Best Buy directional, programming tool out there for the price. Will do stuff my verus with all the updates can’t do.
I've used a Launch scan tool that was complete crap. One in the $400 range you mention (I have to find the model). Never used the model you're mentioning maybe?
Had Launch send me two of them. The first one I actually did a video on it and it was so slow and had so many issues, that I just sent them the raw unedited video and never produced it. It was that bad. Then 6 months later they sent me another unit (same one) with updates and were really excited about it and it was garbage too. Haven't looked at Launch since.
@@ScannerDanner what time frame was that.
Nice demo brother. Curious of your thoughts on the pico 7 software. I only tried it once so far.
As with any new software, it just takes time to get used to it right?
Can someoe with the Autel MS906 PRO TS compare it as to which you think is the better tool to buy?
Good video SD , is say diagun v from kingbolen good value for money and after sales help is good too, less than £600 , not sure what that is in dollars , but I think it's great for the money, so worth passing this info on I think .... anyway thanks again
Rob mobile man
I seen those plugs clean and gap and put back on the engine and doing another 50.000 lol
Check those plugs out. Guy must be on a budget.
Looks like you have a good
ign coil on the Jeep .
If a spark plugs lasts 100k, how could you not replace it with the same thing.
Definitely a no brainier for me!
Biggest fan! 🤣🤣
hey Paul.. could you please advise me on buying an oscilloscope...will a 50mhz picoscope be enough to see waveforms for crank and cam sensors, ignition coils and injectors???
I cant believe nobody has said this, since you know the direction the rotor turns you could have just followed the wires on the cap to figure out the firing order.. No need for google Lol
that's if the last guy had them right lol. been there done that
This cool bro
I knew that was your son in the first 30 sec... :)
Haven't seen you use the IM-608 yet Paul? Seen the Snap-On ones, the Autel Elite and some others.
Launch
I used to set my scope on raster.
What about theLaunch x431 PADIII? It claims it has a bi-directional...
What would you recommend between snapon and bosch that one you are using in your video?.I will really appreciate ur opinion thanks man.
This wasn't about which one, this was about cost. Of course I prefer my Snap-On Verus Edge but thats a scope and scan tool combo and is way more expensive
Can you type in the search bar to pull up the circuit to be tested
Good
Mr.SD, I have a 2000 Vette that will not rev over 2500 rpm. New PPS, new TPS. Is this a common problem with these old machines?
Launch X431 Diagun V $670. Launch X431 Pro V kit $870 2 years free updates and 5 years warranty. Kingbolen distributor on Amazon. Much better deal.
Last Launch tool I used was garbage. Guess I need to see one of these models
Saw this scanner on aes wave for $100 less than amazon. Is there a reason its not on your aes wave tool page?🤔
If you use this link, I think anything you buy i get credit for even if it's not listed on my page? Not sure. www.aeswave.com/scannerdanner-c512/
My maxidas was around $800
Question for you Paul, does bosch have DLC adapters for different vehicle manufactures? ex. older bmw 20 pin round connecter
Not sure my friend
Scannerdanner, what’s a good entry level lab scope? Looking to ditch my meter and move to a scope. I work on HD diesels, so needing a scan tool is not necessary.
I have a Pico 2204a. For the price it is a very good scope and does everything i could ask for. It is my first ocillioscope i have bought myself (i have experience with Pico in the shop). Look it up i got mine for £99.00, i had to buy a few other accessories like longer leads and a couple 20x atinuators but they were only cheap to get.
The uScope from my friends at AESwave. It is a single channel pocket scope and the master kit, that comes with an amp probe, ignition adapters and a test lead runs about $400

Did Ivan inspire the ground on battery modification..... Shoe makers kids shoes lol
Wonder if you had clicked on the next spark tower if it would have shown you which cylinder it was for
What time frame my friend?
@@ScannerDanner 25:20. when you start looking at the firing order and it seems to show only the cylinder layout. I was curious if you clicked on the next tower if it would have shown the next correct cylinder in the order.
@@ralfkramden9291 I don't see a "next tower" I'm sorry
@@ScannerDanner I guess I wasn't clear in what I was asking. I meant if you touched/clicked on the "spark" tower in the image, would it have shown the correct next firing cylinder (i.e. the next one clockwise from the #1 cylinder )
The actual firing order on the cap is missing. I believe any inline motor has the same firing order layout whether a 4 or 6 cyl. Google it ('=')
Hi Paul, I follow you a quite a bit, and I recently took a ASE test for electrical, there was a question that stuck in my head and I was wondering if you could help. the question was mechanic a says The Wider The Wire is ,the better it is, B says the longer the wire the better it is. That is pretty much word to word I did go with A ,what's your . thought. I would like to know or is there any videos that you have posted related to the subject?. thank you
What a dumb question. Lol
Just remember that the longer the wire is, the more resistance it will have, and the "wider" the wire is, the less resistance it will have due to having more copper conductors.
As far as the term "better" goes, that is subjective right? If I need to run a fuel pump that is 7 ft away and I have a choice between a fat 3 ft wire and a thinner 7 ft wire, what am I picking 😆
You could have a giveaway for that tool.
we live in a world of subscriptions.
Would like to see you do some diagnostic with the blue driver
I have 1 or 2 videos where I used it. You just won't see me using these minimum function scan tools much. I'm sorry
Love the channel only work on my own vehicles I have learned a bunch watching the videos 1500 dollar scan tools are still a little pricey for me but I definitely understand the blue driver being a minimum scan tool
Thank you for replying to my comment
@@davidfleckenstein6359 the key when you watch me troubleshoot these cars, is to learn the techniques I'm showing, and then modify the tests to fit the equipment you have. For example. You won't have Bidirectional controls with the bluedriver but if you understand the output circuit being tested, you'll understand that you just simply need to meet the conditions for the computer to turn that circuit on. You won't have a way to force it like I do, but it can still be done, using the same techniques with your voltmeter or test light. Hope that makes sense.
You'll just need to work a little harder 😉
Sorry but What exactly do you mean by bi-directional scan tool?? Thanks for the review of the bosch tool. you gave a honest opinion. Not a great looking tool
Code assist should be code setting criteria
No caption?☹️. Good thing you speak slow I can understand you but still great video. Now I want Bosch scan tool !!!!
I agree.
My hearing is really bad and I never had a hard time understanding what Paul said.
I believe the captions are automatically done on every video. Maybe when it is first processed they are not there? Can you check for me now?
@@ScannerDanner yay! I can see it now!! I’m going to watch it again 😀! Thank you!
@@TheCrazy243 okay sweet! So keep that in mind. If you ever see no captions on a new video, give it some time and it will be there. Thanks again!
ScannerDanner
26:16 They've simply forgotten to add the firing order data.
Is that a screw in the battery terminal?
🤣 heck yes it is
