tips for running obd-2.com diagnostic software
just got the cable tonite...only tried it out once...
have difficulties getting some of the real time data i would like.
anyone using this and familiar with how to set it up.
so far i've found how to watch some of the data and how to read codes, but i couldn't figure out how to look at the log to see how things changed over time.
one thing i want to check out is what my redline is...mostly to confirm that it is at the stock 6200 since the tach is not very accurate.

If you put that file in the correct folder, you should just go to the "Enhanced" menu, then choose your car under the options. That's the menu that has knock retard and all that stuff in it.
If you're chasing a random misfire, the "enhanced" menu will allow you to view the number of misfires on each cylinder. That may help.
