I use my ears and the seat of my pants, I know when something isnt right.

When the seat of your pants is brown the engine is making too much HP?

No such thing as "too much horsepower"
If I ran a Ford motor I wouldnt have to worry about my pants turning brown
They dont make enough power

From your last comment it would not be your pants turning brown but the front of your shirt catching the dribble from your mouth!

Sorry but whilst reading these comments I developed a mental picture of you being able to stick your head up your asterisk!!
Isn't that emu behaviour??

Hey Paul, I downloaded the "Touchscan" software and it's the only one that I can get to work with my ELM 327, so thanks for the tip, unfortunately I had erased the error code that comes up intermittently when I removed the battery terminal, so I couldn't see if it recognised it or not, but it looks promising. It is a lot cheaper to purchase as well! $25 compared to $90 odd.

The idea of you putting your ears on the seat of your pants just doesn't seem right
