Based on the advice I've been getting for my "appetite for O2 sensors" thread, it seems that I need to upgrade my cheap little code reader that I've been using forever to something that is capable of giving me data on the long term fuel trim data for both banks of the engine. Can someone recommend a reasonably priced model that will provide the information needed, as well as being useful in helping me keep this truck on the road a couple more years? Thank you!

Edit: If it's relevant to your recommendation, I also have a 23 Miata that I intend to keep until I die, but I don't expect to own any other ICE vehicles in the time I have left. I do help neighbors with their cars from time to time.

How much did you pay for your scanner I paid like $100 give or take from Harbor Freight and it has helped me over the years.

Ha ha I bought my code reader at least 10 years ago, and it cost me maybe $20. It's tiny, and displays 2 lines of text. It only gives codes, but that is all I have needed until now. Based on the posts in the other thread, it seems like I need one that can display real time data as a the engine runs.

This scanner will do all of that for you. It's on sale now this weekend for $104

If that Zurich ZR11 from HF is the same as the Innova 5210 (it does look the same, superficially) the Innova 5210 is on sale on Amazon for 89.99.

I have the ZR8 from HF and it has been helpful over the years. However, when the time comes my next purchase will be the one from Z1 for the Nissans.
