Not sure if any one has run into this but we have our first customer with a bb vision with the gas v10 roush engine in it. We have a oem ford ids scanner in shop so the first time it came in I tried to hook up and no way[it auto ids 99% of the time]. So I tried our snapon solus. What I found was I could hook up my snapon solus and punch in a e450 v10 and then I could access the engine/trany through the obd2 connector. To get brakes I had to hook up my wabco software through the 9 pin round connector. I finally found the procedure to hook up the IDS to the bus. The ids on pretty well all fords is just hook up and it auto detects and is vin specific. Any way the procedure is first go to the pcm manual enter screen in the IDS then Type PBBB into the first blank box , tab over to the next empty box and type in AA. Hit enter and your into the engine/trany oem computer. Tryng to get in using f550/f650 does not work because it only lists Cummins, cat or int and I believe that's if you are going to use the round HD connector. This connection was done through the obd 2 connector. The wabco brakes is handled through the 9 pin not the odb2 connector. I figured I would post it just in case some one runs into the same problem.
Thanks for the info, We have one BB gas now and are set to get 16 over 3 years. Lets hope they are soild buses, and moves us away from diesel. We are a small district 36 buses total.

I'm curious as to why gas and not propane? I'm scared of gas. Just don't like that large flammability window.
