OBD2 tools are universal (well, more or less*) it's the software you have that determines how much info you can get from it. Generic stuff will only return the OBD2 essential and optional information. Skipped for example any extras Ford put in. If you have the Ford software you'd get all of it.

*There's a few different electrical protocols involved, but most tools these days can read all of them. For a B series Falcon ensure the tool supports 'CAN'
