Wow! That's a pretty good description. I have to wonder about resale though - with the little paint daub that's usually put on the assembly to indicate tampering (if it's broken or removed). Maybe it's obvious that I haven't tampered with it because the mileage is over 200K (and I may never sell it anyway)... Has anyone on the list had to deal with explaining away an odometer repair?
