<p class="yiv1128801930MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D;">When I bought my BJ8 in 1984, the odometer was not working. It
read 51,788 miles. When I opened the unit I discovered a small spring and
lever arm lying in the bottom of the case. After I determined where those came
from and reinstalled them, the odo has worked perfectly ever since. Not
knowing the mileage exactly, I had no problem zeroing it out. It now shows 123,834
miles. I’m a great believer in log books for cars for recording their history.</span></p>
