I guess I will need a ODB code reader? Will any one do or only the older

Maybe. 1998 was a transition year... california cars all had OBD-II,
some trucks had OBD-II, but some cars and trucks still had OBD-I. Check
the manual if you don't see an obvious OBD-II port. You may be having to
count light flashes.

should probably just use the (usually free) code reading
services rather than buying a reader at this point.
He might not even need that.
