Xeroinfinity, why do you say it won't be fun? Personally I'll find all of this puzzle-piecing to be quite fun, and it'll be entirely satisfying when it's completed.

Call me crazy, but I completely like the idea of making this car look more modern without hurting the stock look, and giving it great maintenance to make it run like a champ. Many people call me stupid for doing this, but if I can get another 200000 miles off of this, it's my gain, not theirs
Sometimes it starts out fun, then ends with hair pulling, :banghead , screaming , etc etc.

Though its a good learning experiance, I wasnt trying to discourage you.
It actually isnt that hard once the wires are located .
Putting in the oil pressure sending unit might be the dirtiest part.

On the milage, thiers a specific wire that runs from the Ecm to the gauges to read the odometer.

Good Hunting
