I am not 100% sure (more like 90% sure) about this but someone will probably jump in and let you know if I am wrong.

I believe it will not work on a 93 car because the 93 cars have a different computer that utilizes a "Chip" and the 94-95 cars uses PCM Obd1 "computer" and the 96-97 cars utilizes a OBd2 PCM. Its different set up then the 93.

Also the Scanmaster would let you see many different features like o2 sensors, egrs, knock....etc, if you have a 94-95 car it will also let you see your "DTC codes" or SES trouble codes.

You can see pics of what it looks like on the first page of my website (its above the steering wheel). The site is in my sig.

Hope that helps somewhat,
Claude
