Your code reader will be OBDI, you can buy them at Kragen (at least thats where I bought mine). I paid around 30 bucks for it; small yellow box with 3 buttons on it, just readers numbers. I love havin' it in my glove box because my truck threw lots of codes whenever it wanted when I first got it several months back, all better now!!
