Dude wanted $70 just to tell me what was wrong. I know it's the going price but I've been spoiled for so long (driving a wrecker in WLA for 12 yrs, all my guys are up there) I was wondering who locally has a shop or has the stuff in there house (diagnostics, etc.) to help me fix my junk. Got a 90 suburban with a check engine light and its running rich. I'm thinking O2 sensor especially because the exhaust is all mangled around it, which I wanna get fixed as well. I could probably troubleshoot it to death but it would take me forever, if at all, to fix it. Rather pay someone to do it right the first time. Thanx.

With that year of Chevy I beleive that there are two pins that you can cross and get the code via the check engine light flashing. Then you can cross the code to determine what the problem is.
Or go to your local AZ and have them carry the reader to your truck and plug it in.
Hope that helps.

Paul, if you feel like making a drive, I have a Mac Mentor (my personal scanner) you could borrow if needed.

I really appreciate all the help you guys are offering but I think we got off topic. Basically I was asking for a mechanic in/near the long beach area that I could just turn my truck & keys over to, so I can get the truck fixed right.
