I got a funny story for you LOL. So I have had my fair share of code readers. All under $100 so nothing to fancy. I have a 2005 Chevy 2500HD with a big lift and a hypertech programmer which is at least 12 years old. The tuner allows me to delete codes and read them as well. For the last decade I have dealt with the same error codes from this truck and check engine light. The Hypertech tells me its a sensor in the tank so I just deal with it. 2 weeks ago I pull out the https://www.harborfreight.com/mercha...ata-63809.html I bought and it tells me something completely different. It states the MAF. I think to myself you have to be kidding me that is a 5 min fix. I order a new MAF and BAM!!!! Light has stayed off. I cant believe all this time and it was the MAF. The ZR8 is a nice unit and worth the upgrade
