    A couple years ago I bought a basic code reader for $45 (on sale) at my local NAPA Auto Parts. Innova model 30203.
    It seems to do fairly well for me. I doubt I would want a more expensive scan tool for my car since it's 24 years old and doesn't have computer controlled everything, unlike more modern cars/trucks/SUVs/etc.

    Not sure how much even the best scan tool would help me since my mechanical IQ is around 27.

      It may not work for you to work on the vehicle, but if you start having issues, you can scan and do research so you know whether or not your mechanic is honest or full of crap
