C5 gas guage
Saw a video on YouTube where a guy had fuel gauge issues and plugged his scanner in.
I was pretty impressed that his scanner showed what each fuel tank level was as with simulated gauges on the scanner, and I do realize those simulated gauges could be wrong if the senders are dirty/not reading correctly.
Cannot find the video again to look up that scanner, do any of you have a scanner that will let you read each fuel tank level?
If so what brand and model?

There are MANY scan tools by different manufacturers that will do this...Launch, Autel, Topdon, Bosch, Snap On....about $500.00 will get you a good aftermarket bidirectional scan tool...don't buy a cheap code reader...they are basically useless....if you want to be a Chinese clone Tech 2 you can do that.
