Anthony,
It depends on what you're are trying to analyze? FWIW we use Fluke and Tektronix spectrum analyzers at work and I really like them, but they're in the 3-10k range.

Looking at the specs it should be able to perform those tests. Might be worth a shot for $70 shipped. I'd be curious to hear your findings if you do buy it.
Another thought, you could always find a amateur radio guy in your area who might be willing to lend you one.

I picked up a TEK 2445B from government surplus for under $300. It was hardly ever used and therefore in like-new condition.
That is your best bet. Check eBay for TEK oscilloscopes. Make sure it comes with probes as they can set you back a bit.

Hmm. I'd be interested in an update too. I went thru the same process (found an o-scope on craigslist for cheap) because I had a misfire. Turns out it was a waste of money.... my first problem was I set the fuel pressure too high; second problem I chose the wrong spark plugs, which had excessive gap. So my lesson was that when you think you need an o-scope, it's probably something much simpler.
