KingBonacci is right. You can go to Autozone and use one. But you have no way to get your car there, you might want to go in to Advanced auto or Autozone and see you can rent one from them. I know there are some tools that you can rent with a deposit that you get back on return. I dont know if they would do it with an OBD reader.

I also have a OBDII sensor (live in New Britain), you can borrow it if you want.
And yes guys, I'm still alive! LOL!
I am still driving my 8 (even in the snow) and it's does pretty good except when going up a steep hill, the posi-track will slow the car down to a stop if I can't get traction.
I've put almost 20K miles on the car in the last 6 months driving to NYC twice a week for work....
Managed to get a pic showing -4 on the outside temp guage yesterday...

A member at Mazdas247 had this meet a while ago and are doing it again and so far we got a decent list. Would love to see a few 8s there. There are going to be quite a few Speed3s and a few Speed6s. We need rotaries!

I'm down. I went to the pike by taco bell for the last 2 weekends but it seems all there is are ricers and rednecks with their jeeps parked 4 feet up light posts. There needs to be something better.

Seriously, there are meets over by me (in danbury) but I think they're pretty much all rice-fests. We used to have mazda meets over at Buffalo Wild Wings in danbury last year but Im not sure if they're starting up again or not. I'll have to check Mazdas247 to see whats goin on there. Maybe we should check some of the other forums (nasioc, etc.) to see if there are any bigger regular meets happening. I also think cruise days/nights could be real fun, we should put a couple together.

I'm moving to Danbury at the end of the month. So a local meet would be nice... If I can just stop spending every week driving to NYC.... Going to top 70K miles soon....
