Question code reader

Hi I have a 91 E150 with an I6. I'd like to buy a code reader to scan the engine error codes. Any advice on what to buy? OBD-II? I? They seem to range from $30 to $300. Do I need to spend $300? or will something in the middle suffice? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

thanks,
-jeremy

for a van that old your going to problay need oboI, as far as price goes, it really depends on what your trying to do, if you just want to know what codes your throwing then go with the cheaper one. Just look at your options and see what each one does and find the one that best fits your needs.
