O.K., so i need a scan tool for my 95 z28, i understand there is some issues over obd1 or 2 in my case i have a obd2 connecter for a obd1 car, what do i buy?

 

if you have a labtop get a tuner cat. then youd have to order a custom cable to go from your car to the labtop

 

You can pick up an AutoXray scan tool and the cable for OBD I GM cars with the OBD II port. Should be around $210 for both, just do some digging around (google).

Or, you can pick up an adapter cable ( www.akmcables.com/ ) that will allow you to connect your pc/laptop to the vehicle's OBD port using the serial port of the pc/laptop. Then just download something like Freescan or Datamaster and scan away. There are other options out there, those are just some common ones that usually get the job done pretty well. I've had Freescan for a while now and have found it to be very easy to use and VERY handy.

Good luck.

 

The only problem with that is that Tunercat is a programmer and not a scanner.

Scan tool info

 

o.k., maybe you could suggest somplace to get it scaned. I would rather spend the money fixing the problem rather than finding it if possible?

 

Autozone does free scans

 

I knew someone might suggest this, but they only scan OBD-II. Your 1995 is OBD-I. However, they might "loan" you a scan tool. You have to secure it with a hefty payment that they refund when you return the tool.
If you do get ahold of an OBD-I scan tool it will probably have the 12 pin connector on it that won't match to your DLC. You can adapt it like this.
