Thanks guys. I'm putting the car at Lackland storage on route 206 next to the Days Inn on the north side of town. The only place for miles that has available parking AND allows non functioning vehicles to stay there.

The problem I have is with towing the thing all over the place, paying for it each time. Fasterthanyou had a portable diagnostic machine, so setting up a time in the evening for an hour to run the codes works best for me right now.

On a side note, the comment about the paper clip - Auto Zone in Raritan has these free metal inserts for the A/B slots on the ALDL to check the codes. I have one, and could probably do that. However since I've never done it before, I'd rather have someone with a portable machine do it for me the first time, and maybe show me what the layout is for the ALDL. I have a list of codes and their meanings, just not the name/number of the 12 ports on the ALDL.

Thanks for the help guys.
