i changed my coil 8 months ago...

air filter is good..plugs are good..fuel filter could use a change. Is it a big job to get to it? is it something that i could do my self? I noticed my vacuum hose looks wore out and probably needs replacing. Could that be causing it? Id love to run a diag to find the error codes but nobody will do it for free..the cheapest i could find was $60 bucks. so i would rather just buy my own scanner but im not sure if my car is an obd2 or not. the connection under my dash is a square 16 pin plug. Does that mean its an obd2. Can anyone recommend a good scanner? thanx for the help fellas.....:thumbsup:
