Just hit 1000 hours on my scan tool and the data it saved me is wild

I was checking the service logs on my Snap-on Zeus and saw the hour meter hit 1000. That's a lot of time plugged into trucks. The real shock was looking back at the stored fault history from just one fleet account. Over those hours, the live data caught five injectors starting to fail before they left anyone stranded. We're talking small fuel trim changes the drivers never felt. It made me think, how many of you guys track your diagnostic tool hours? What's the most useful thing you've pulled from saved data trends?

Oh man, that's awesome. My old Solus hit a crazy number like that too. The best catch was spotting a slow drop in compression on one cylinder over a few months of saved graphs, way before it started missing.

But saving all that data just seems like overkill for most home jobs.
