Very true Jewbu.. I would just be cautious to the actual mileage. No one will ever know. Like my example: I have a friend with a '94 Ford Ranger(Bought new), and he has his interior light fuse removed, and this also controls the Odometer on his Ford. He has had this truck for some time, and the mileage reads 43,xxx miles. It's there, and you can see it, but do you REALLY know the true mileage? I would just be cautious that if the prior owner didn't fix this correctly; what else could have went to the way-side..
