CAT 31260 Engine Diagnostic

[Skyhawk13205]

You can do it but get the NEWEST and best mechanical condition truck you can. Late model a1 or a1r and start driving it everywhere and fix every last thing that starts to go wrong. Stuff will fail left and right then it will all start to smooth out after about 5k miles of driving and you will learn the quirks and issues with the truck. Then address them. Start small and work big.

what happens with me is my truck breaks in my imagination, and my anxiety makes me fix it for real.

My imaginary failures are,

C6 thrust bearing
Steer tire blowout
Huei pump
Air compressor head
Engine ECU no comm
Flex plate separation

Hi guys,

I'm still a little confused about which devices I should buy to diagnostic my truck ECU

I have an old windows computer with windows 7 (NO RS232) but I can buy an adapter RS232 to USB
Should I buy something like this :

Pardon Our Interruption...

www.ebay.com

Or something like

CAT ET3 317-7485 Electric System Diagnostic Tool

This CAT ET3 allows users to read ECM on engines. It will read fault codes, faulty part numbers, engine RPM, temperatures and etc. ET3 is also used to re-flash and reprogram ECM without going to dealers. It can be used on almost all CAT machines as long as the machine has an engine ECM on it.

Or diferent tool?
