THANKS everyone. The scan tools for the boat owner Merc outboards and for all the I/O s and inboards Diacom Techmate PRO is the scan tool to have. I even use it for ECM repairs.

If you tell me what apps you want a scan tool for I can direct you with which scan tool to buy and which adapters are needed. The marine industry has not standardized itself like the auto the side. Each marine engine brand has different ecms and different DLC to connect to and even on Emission control CAT marine engines as well.

DLC is called data link connector in which is the connection / connector / harness on the engine side to connect your scan tool for diagnostic and parameter readings and engine hours and fault codes and available power and so on.

Early V 10 ILmor engines one can use an AUTO OBD 2 scan tool. But midway V 10 ILmor builds require Diacom scan tool and that's the only scan tool will scan the ILmors using Econtrols pcms.

The OBD 2 scan port is standardized so you can tell at that port its an OBD 2 scan requirement for the EARLY --- V 10 ILmor marine engines

For the ign 1 A coils. You can not mix or match the coils. Yes I am stating for a fact the coils that I get are the real mcCoys and produde the highest mjs spark output on the market BAR NONE.

they require all 8 being new coils of what I have and a bit of fabbing of the coil brackets. With that said the coils I have will lite a freaking camp fire. So know how does little old me have these. Directly one can read inbetween the lines here. Merc does not make the coils - years ago they hired a very smart person to invent / move forward with these coils, then of course a coil manu to make them. So keep in mind that the OEMs are about profit. with that said lets just say I know whom that person was from the get go. They are a 5 connector coil.

What is your price less any discount for the Techmate Pro with 94005 and 94006 adapter plugs??

Also what is the cost of just a 94005 adapter plug. I have a scan tool I can use when needed, but he does not have the 94005.

Price list for this week as I hear they will be going up and shipping rates as well. I can not say when Diacom is raising their prices but at some point this year its coming for that price increase.

$ 548 plus shipping -- You need one extra adaptor to scan the 555 ecms being a 2006 Mercruiser but is the 2006 app a Mercruiser ?? Also shipping inwhich on an average range 25 bucks. If we get 10 buy ins then one can take off ---- an average of 10 percent and hopefully save some on the shipping. .

Thx BUP Looks like I'll also need the 94006 adapter for the 5.7 Vortec mpi it's for my wakeboard boat

Mercruiser engine ? Or indmar ? Indmar and PCM and marine power all had 5.7 Vortec mpi in wake boats as well for 2006..

If your 2006 wake boat is Mercruiser that is correct for the adaptor you posted. ( this adaptor will only work for Mercruiser using the 555 computers - yes 2006 used the 555 ecms.) The cost of that adaptor is 49 bucks without shipping .

Thx for clarifying its a Marine Power 5.7
