Default Scanner recommendations??

I'd like to get a OBD1 code scanner for my '88. I see alot of owners using the AutoXray units. Let me know if you've used them, and are they worth the money?
Thanks,
Fix

Your 88 is OBD1
For OBD1 Scan tools check out:

OBD1 GM 82-95
--------------
1) Ease Diagnostics at http://www.obd2.com or http://www.easesim.com
2) Diacom at http://www.rinda.com
3) AutoXray at http://www.autoxray.com
4) Do-it-yourselfer EFI page at http://www.diy-efi.org
5) MAC Tools at http://www.actron.com/cgi-bin/web_st...=1194458_16432
6) Craig Moates at http://ice.prohosting.com/moates/index.html
7) AKM cables page at http://www.mindspring.com/~amattei/dss.htm


* New or used scan tools like those offered by Snap-On and OTC which are often sold at good used prices on the auction sites.

The cheapest scan tool for OBD1 vehicles is probably #5 Craig Moates software. It's FREE. You have to buy or build a cable to connect to the ALDL. You can get an assembled cable or just the parts from #6 AKM cables.

I'm a part-time rep for Ease and I'm always willing to answer questions on the Forum or by direct email. The Ease OBD1 tools is $315 (before rebate). Ease scan tools include everything but the laptop. Ease scan tools work with Win95, 98, 2000, NT4.0 SP5+, XP. I offer a 10% rebate on all Ease purchases made through me. Ease offers a 30 money back warranty period.

I became a rep after buying the Ease OBD1 scan tool for my 88 coupe.
