thanks before i did the head gasket about a month 1/2 ago at times it would only be code P0420 Error Code: Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold Bank 2. usually that means cat is on its way out. since the head gasket no more code p0420. but the new code everything was new gaskets seals throttle body elbow plugs coils.only had this truck since may/2014 previous owner really did a job on f----ing it up.well the intake bolts took 4 more turns on the bolts.more driving to do.do you think this scanner is good=http://www.ebay.com/itm/USA-Shipping-Creator-C110-V3-6-BMW-Trouble-Code-Reader-Diagnostic-Scanner-/111400452001?hash=item19effbffa1&item=111400452001 &pt=Motors_Automotive_Tools&vxp=mtr

Have you run any fuel injector cleaner? If you have a partially plugged injector, it may resolve the problem w/o opening anything up.
