Alan,

I've got about 185,000 on my '87, not sure exactly how many because the pin
that the numbers for the odometer roll on keeps slipping out.  I've had it
the last four years and with the exception of replacing the main seal three
times myself in the last two years, and taking it in tomorrow so someone else
can do it the fourth time, I haven't had too much go wrong with it.  Viscous
coupling is the original as far as I know.
