Yes the durametric is the tool to have. Yku can get a chinese knock off for around 20 bucks that works fine for most engine diagnostics. The real version is more versatile with functions that can turn options on and off.

But to really to take advantage of the duramettic you have to have good understanding of modern fuel injection. All the durametric shows are error codes and values which if you dont know how ti intrrpret them the durametr ic will be of little value.

For example a common error code is an oxygen sensor reading out of spec so many guys will just replace the sensor only to find the code doesnt go away. The problem is that some other problem like a vacuum leak is causing the o sensor to read out of spec and if you dont undsrstand how the whole fi system works you wont get the diagnosis right.
