My two cents:

I've learned two things about those. First thing, was dealers carried them for pocket change, giving me a clue they expect them to break. Learned that from reading this forum, not from experience, preferring to collect a few of them from the yards after someone had harvested all the odo gears.

Second thing, on the electronic gauges (like your 91 and 93) I tried in vain, with the gauge on the bench, to catch the odo gear being moved by a trip reset, yet I've stopped two odos by using the reset parked at the gas pump. I'm still running vintage odo gears -- haven't yet given Jeff my $25 -- so I'm into the math exercise too. Actually I just write the odo reading on the gas receipt. After 10 years driving the same cars one gets to feel if the m's pg are wrong.

My dog is worried about the economy because Alpo is up to $3.00 a can.
That's almost $21.00 in dog money.
