Default OBD II code reader/CAN for $40?

Anyone try this? Probably not a bad investment for $40!
The 95's have the OBD II port, but use OBD I, will this still work?

Thats just a code reader. Not a scanner. I dont think obd 2 is compatible with obd1 . A scanner would be more useful to you than just a code reader. Just my .02.

I have that unit and agree with Mike here. It will not work on OBDI.

OBDI & OBDII are entirely different and as mentioned a scanner is way more useful than a code reader.
