I used a circuit tester light (which I had), and read the codes in no time. I was soooo glad I hadn't wasted the $$$ on the EEC IV reader. Ah, good ole "176, 176".

You don't even need the test light. The CEL light on the dash will flash at the same time as the tester light anyway.
Just sit comfortably in your car with pen and paper and count the flashes. Just don't sneeze or blink or you'll get all messed up!
