Scanner Advice Please

From : langerhans

Q: langerhans wrote ive finally decided to bite the bullet and buy myself a new obd-ii code reader. ive looked at a few models on the web and am leaning toward the innova/equus canobd-ii model 3110. does anybody here have anything good or bad to say about this one im also a bit confused about the can protocol. it appears that dc introduced this on some 04 models and frankly i figure that since im not likely to buy another scanner this decade its worth the small upcharge to include this feature since its going to be required on all cars soon. can anybody point me to a source of information as to which dc models use can and what it is good for thanks. ive been satisfied with a model 3100 never heard of can before. now you made me find this http//www.iequus.com/assets/codereaders/canvehicles.htm its good for nothing! my next truck will be an oldie. .

i am working on a 2000 dodge durango with 4.7 the check engine light comes and goes. i checked the defalt codes and it comes up po202po204po207 and po208 any ideas where i could find out what these codes mean. those are all fuel injector codes for cylinders 2 4 7 and 8. look for a loose wiring harness somewhere between the injectors and the pcm. .
