Well, I posted the other day about how my odo was toast.  Someone pointed
me to the URL that told how to fix it.  While I was poking around in the
odometer looking for what wasn't functioning properly, I put about about
300 miles on it in a minute or two *by hand*.  Shouldn't take any time at
all doing it with a drill....
