Default Scanner Range Info Needed

I have a 95 SS and just purchased an OTC 4000E scanner, specifically for this car. Cost me 60.00,seemed fair to me! It came with several upgrades including the 95 Pathfinder cartridge. It seems to give a lot of data info, (for the technology anyways!) but I have no reference as to what the ranges should be. Is there a way to get a list of acceptable readings for this car? I have had 2 shops tell me this car has two diagnostic connectors, one for each OBD1 and OBD2, but I can't find anything but the OBD1. Thanks!

I don't think it's true either, but it never hurts to ask. A lot of good info comes thru here.

Never even thought about using an OTC, good idea! I use to tune my turbo buick with one of those back in the day. You could record your runs but the update rate was really slow- like a frame every 1.5 seconds or something like that.
