I've skimmed through other threads and haven't been able to find what I want. Does anyone have a particular brand and model of diagnostic scanner for a 1998 discovery with a 4.0 gems engine. I want one that allows me to clear check engine light. It's still on after replacing catalytic converters but if cleared will pass inspection here in north texas.

Most dumb scanners will do that. Auto parts stores will clear codes for free usually. I use the Torque app and a good OBDII bluetooth connector for this, and it lets me run additional gauges. If you want to access other computers in the chain, SRS, ABS etc., you need a more powerful scanner like the factory would use. Their are a few out there, but pricey and you need adapter and connectors for each module you need to access from what I understand. This was on my list for a long time, but I never found a system I liked for a price I wanted to pay.
