That Scanner thing...
I just got an unexpected windfall and want to get a Scanner for use on my '87 C4.
I looked at one after I saw it mentioned here in the forums. A complete setup on Ebay for about $200.00 but I don't remember the nomenclature and can't find the post any more. It was rectangular and colored red and black (dark gray?) and, I think, used interchangeable cartridges for different manufacturers cars.
Can any of you point me at a good scanner?
Thanks

I put this in my '96 and operate it from my iPhone. Gives live feed, trouble codes, etc.

Black/red sounds like a MT2500 Snap-On - very good equipment for your needs IF it has correct cartridges. A GM/Vetronix TECH1 also very good.
I have a GM/Vetronix TECH1 with all the required cartridges I might consider the sale of. I've a multitude of cartridges including the MASS STORAGE which allows use on multiple vehicles, correct cables are required to use.
