http://www.midwayautosupply.com/detailedproductdescription.asp?3829 looks like a good deal. i figure since my idle sux yet the car runs perfect above 1000rpm and i have a pms on the way and ill be doing all my own tuning, this would be helpful. i know how to count lights and all that good stuff but this just seems a lot easier because a digital number cant be mistaken like a flash of light can. pretty good price too

I use the old "flashing light" version of that. I think I would like that one better, though. It would be alot easier.

Thats the same one I have. I got mine at wal-mart for 29.99. Best tool in my toolbox. Hook it up, start her up, press a few buttons it tells you whats wrong with your car. Aint Life Grand

FWIW, it seems to be regional. The Wally mart I go to does not sell code readers at all.

I would use the LCD version myself, were I buying a reader.

Good luck.

Haha .... JT must be stuck in the "test light" era, lol. Done that a few times myself.

You know Justin, Like you probably, I cant stand using a test light. I like the beeps (I am simple, and like to write numbers down while I listen to beeps).

But I have an old-school reader for my '88 (SD, ergo no CEL). Having stuff stored with an LCD seems mint since I always wonder if I kicked a number. My OBD-II reader obviously has the LCD (but no memory) and I like the idea.

its defenitely reginal. no walmart around here has it. nor does the kragen's that the site lists in my area. im just going to order it tomorrow off the internet
