iv read about the obd on here... i have an OBD to serial cable which i am told will interface with a 2.0L 95 scorpio.. is that rightHuh and the best i can come up with is that you use ve1? but you all also say that it depends what software to what cable.. is that correct as wellHuh and does the cable connect straight to the pc? or has it got to go threw an rs232 interface firstHuhall this is new to me, i'm used to the spanners, not cables and software but i'll try anything.. all advice is welcome..
