This is a little broader than 4.6 tech but here goes… I just paid $87 to have the neighborhood Shell station pull and clear an evap code from my wife’s Honda. After the soreness goes away, I’m going sit down and buy an OBDII scanner. I need some recommendations. I would like it to be PC-based (real-time and logged data on a laptop), expandable (buy the Ford package now, Honda package later), and upgradeable to support CAN if needed. I also don’t want to have to sell a kidney to get it. Please share your experiences, I appreciate the input….
 
Autozone parts stores will read and erase your codes for free. They sell a couple scan tools, $149.99 for just obd II and I think the other is $279.99 for obd I & II, but you need the diff. ends for specific makes to read the obd I codes.
