In the past, I have borrowed or purchased two of three different "scan tools" for use on OBD ports. Haven't had much luck with any of them. Last year after having one fail to work on my 99 Nissan pickup, I happened upon a web site for a program that runs in W98 and performs automotive diagnostics. The site was:

The software was free, but you have to buy a connector cable to use it. It worked great on the Nissan pickup.

Used Car Parts
The other night, I was searching for some prices for used Diesel engines. After going to several links that turned up in my Google search, I found:
http://www.car-part.com/
It may not work well for everyone, but it produced a lot of results for the search I was running, many more than the other sites I tried.

Current Hot Button
For the past several days, actually since just before this years World's Longest Yard Sale, I have been toying with the idea of making my own 'veggie' car. I've found a lot of info at:
http://www.greasecar.com/ and http://greasel.com/
I have been searching the local want ads, eBay, AutoTrader , etc for a suitable (read cheap) diesel vehicle to use as my guniea pig. No luck so far. The search continues.
